No database is required in this case as the mapping is deterministic.</para> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>IDMAP OPTIONS</title> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term>range = low - high</term> <listitem><para> Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the backend is authoritative. Note that the range acts as a filter. If algorithmically determined UID or GID fall outside the range, they are ignored and the corresponding map is discarded. It is intended as a way to avoid accidental UID/GID overlaps between local and remotely defined IDs. </para></listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term>base_rid = INTEGER</term> <listitem><para> Defines the base integer used to build SIDs out of a UID or a GID, and to rebase the UID or GID to be obtained from a SID. This means SIDs with a RID less than the base rid are filtered. The default is not to restrict the allowed rids at all, i.e. a base_rid value of 0. A good value for the base_rid can be 1000, since user RIDs by default start at 1000 (512 hexadecimal). </para> <para> Use of this parameter is deprecated. </para></listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>THE MAPPING FORMULAS</title> <para> The Unix ID for a RID is calculated this way: <programlisting> ID = RID - BASE_RID + LOW_RANGE_ID. </programlisting> </para> <para> Correspondingly, the formula for calculationg the RID for a given Unix ID is this: <programlisting> RID = ID + BASE_RID - LOW_RANGE_ID. </programlisting> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>EXAMPLES</title> <para> This example shows how to configure two domains with idmap_rid, the principal domain and a trusted domain, leaving the default id mapping scheme at tdb. The example also demonstrates the use of the base_rid parameter for the trusted domain. </para> <programlisting> [global] security = domain workgroup = MAIN idmap backend = tdb idmap uid = 1000000-1999999 idmap gid = 1000000-1999999 idmap config MAIN : backend = rid idmap config MAIN : range = 10000 - 49999 idmap config TRUSTED : backend = rid idmap config TRUSTED : range = 50000 - 99999 idmap config TRUSTED : base_rid = 1000 </programlisting> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>AUTHOR</title> <para> The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell.
