This provides a simple means of ensuring that the SID for a Unix user named jsmith is reported as the one assigned to DOMAIN\jsmith which is necessary for reporting ACLs on files and printers stored on a Samba member server. </para> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>EXAMPLES</title> <para> This example shows how to use idmap_nss to check the local accounts for its own domain while using allocation to create new mappings for trusted domains </para> <programlisting> [global] idmap backend = tdb idmap uid = 1000000-1999999 idmap gid = 1000000-1999999 idmap config SAMBA : backend = nss idmap config SAMBA : range = 1000-999999 </programlisting> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>AUTHOR</title> <para> The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell.
