NAME
       idmap_tdb - Samba’s idmap_tdb Backend for Winbind

DESCRIPTION
       The idmap_tdb plugin is the default backend used by winbindd for stor-
       ing 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	 win-
	  bindd	 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
