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

16 This example shows how to use idmap_nss to obtain the local account
17 ID's for its own domain (SAMBA) from NSS, whilst allocating new
18 mappings for the default domain (*) and any trusted domains.

30 Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open
31 Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
