+ The idmap_tdb plugin is the default backend used by winbindd
+ for storing SID/uid/gid mapping tables.
+ </p><p>
+ In contrast to read only backends like idmap_rid, it is an allocating
+ backend: This means that it needs to allocate new user and group IDs in
+ order to create new mappings. The allocator can be provided by the
+ idmap_tdb backend itself or by any other allocating backend like
+ idmap_ldap or idmap_tdb2. This is configured with the
+ parameter <em class="parameter"><code>idmap alloc backend</code></em>.
+ </p><p>
+ Note that in order for this (or any other allocating) backend to
+ function at all, the default backend needs to be writeable.
+ The ranges used for uid and gid allocation are the default ranges
+ configured by "idmap uid" and "idmap gid".
+ </p><p>
+ Furthermore, since there is only one global allocating backend
+ responsible for all domains using writeable idmap backends,
+ any explicitly configured domain with idmap backend tdb
+ should have the same range as the default range, since it needs
+ to use the global uid / gid allocator. See the example below.

+ This example shows how tdb is used as a the default idmap backend.
+ It configures the idmap range through the global options for all
+ domains encountered. This same range is used for uid/gid allocation.

+ This (rather theoretical) example shows how tdb can be used as the
+ allocating backend while ldap is the default backend used to store
+ the mappings.
+ It adds an explicit configuration for some domain DOM1, that
+ uses the tdb idmap backend. Note that the same range as the
+ default uid/gid range is used, since the allocator has to serve
+ both the default backend and the explicitly configured domain DOM1.
