- <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
-
- <para>The idmap_ldap plugin provides a means for Winbind to
- store and retrieve SID/uid/gid mapping tables in an LDAP directory
- service.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- In contrast to read only backends like idmap_rid, it is an allocating
- backend: This means that it needs to allocate new user and group IDs in
- order to create new mappings.

- <title>EXAMPLES</title>
-
- <para>
- The following example shows how an ldap directory is used as the
- default idmap backend. It also configures the idmap range and base
- directory suffix. The secret for the ldap_user_dn has to be set with
- &quot;net idmap secret '*' password&quot;.
- </para>
-
- <programlisting>
- [global]
- idmap config * : backend = ldap
- idmap config * : range = 1000000-1999999
- idmap config * : ldap_url = ldap://localhost/
- idmap config * : ldap_base_dn = ou=idmap,dc=example,dc=com
- idmap config * : ldap_user_dn = cn=idmap_admin,dc=example,dc=com
- </programlisting>
-
- <para>
- This example shows how ldap can be used as a readonly backend while
- tdb is the default backend used to store the mappings.
- It adds an explicit configuration for some domain DOM1, that
- uses the ldap idmap backend. Note that a range disjoint from the
- default range is used.
- </para>
-
- <programlisting>
- [global]
- # "backend = tdb" is redundant here since it is the default
- idmap config * : backend = tdb
- idmap config * : range = 1000000-1999999
-
- idmap config DOM1 : backend = ldap
- idmap config DOM1 : range = 2000000-2999999
- idmap config DOM1 : read only = yes
- idmap config DOM1 : ldap_url = ldap://server/
- idmap config DOM1 : ldap_base_dn = ou=idmap,dc=dom1,dc=example,dc=com

- <title>NOTE</title>
-
- <para>In order to use authentication against ldap servers you may
- need to provide a DN and a password. To avoid exposing the password
- in plain text in the configuration file we store it into a security
- store. The &quot;net idmap &quot; command is used to store a secret
- for the DN specified in a specific idmap domain.

- The original Samba software and related utilities
