	<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
	<para>The idmap_hash plugin implements a hashing algorithm used to map
	  SIDs for domain users and groups to 31-bit uids and gids, respectively.
	  This plugin also implements the nss_info API and can be used
	  to support a local name mapping files if enabled via the
	  &quot;winbind normalize names&quot; and &quot;winbind nss info&quot;
	  parameters in smb.conf.

	<para>
	The original Samba software and related utilities
	were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
