  22         <para>The idmap_tdb plugin is the default backend used by winbindd
  23         for storing SID/uid/gid mapping tables and implements
  24         both the &quot;idmap&quot; and &quot;idmap alloc&quot; APIs.

  35                         Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the
  36                         backend is authoritative.  Note that the range commonly matches
  37                         the allocation range due to the fact that the same backend will
  38                         store and retrieve SID/uid/gid mapping entries.  If the parameter
  39                         is absent, Winbind fail over to use the &quot;idmap uid&quot; and
  40                         &quot;idmap gid&quot; options from smb.conf.

  66         The original Samba software and related utilities
  67         were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
  68         by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
  69         to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
