IDMAP_TDB(8)


NAME

  idmap_tdb - Samba's idmap_tdb Backend for Winbind


DESCRIPTION

  The idmap_tdb plugin is the default backend used by winbindd for storing
  SID/uid/gid mapping tables and implements both the "idmap" and "idmap
  alloc" APIs.


IDMAP OPTIONS

  range = low - high
     Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the backend
     is authoritative. Note that the range commonly matches the allocation
     range due to the fact that the same backend will store and retrieve
     SID/uid/gid mapping entries. If the parameter is absent, Winbind fail
     over to use the "idmap uid" and "idmap gid" options from smb.conf.


IDMAP ALLOC OPTIONS

  range = low - high
     Defines the available matching uid and gid range from which winbindd can
     allocate for users and groups. If the parameter is absent, Winbind fail
     over to use the "idmap uid" and "idmap gid" options from smb.conf.


EXAMPLES

  The following example is equivalent to the pre-3.0.25 default idmap
  configuration using the "idmap backend = tdb" setting.

	  [global]
	      idmap domains = ALLDOMAINS
	      idmap config ALLDOMAINS:default = yes
	      idmap config ALLDOMAINS:backend = tdb
	      idmap config ALLDOMAINS:range   = 10000 - 50000

	      idmap alloc backend = tdb
	      idmap alloc config:range = 10000 - 50000
