9 The idmap_nss plugin provides a means to map Unix users and groups to
10 Windows accounts and obsoletes the "winbind trusted domains only"
11 smb.conf option. This provides a simple means of ensuring that the SID
12 for a Unix user named jsmith is reported as the one assigned to
13 DOMAIN\jsmith which is necessary for reporting ACLs on files and
14 printers stored on a Samba member server.
