This plugin also implements the nss_info API and can be used to support a local name mapping files if enabled via the "winbind normalize names" and "winbind nss info" parameters in smb\&.conf\&. .SH "IDMAP OPTIONS" .PP name_map .RS 4 Specifies the absolute path to the name mapping file used by the nss_info API\&. Entries in the file are of the form "\fIunix name\fR = \fIqualified domain name\fR"\&. Mapping of both user and group names is supported\&. .RE .SH "EXAMPLES" .PP The following example utilizes the idmap_hash plugin for the idmap and nss_info information\&. .sp .if n \{\ .RS 4 .\} .nf [global] idmap config * : backend = hash idmap config * : range = 1000\-4000000000 winbind nss info = hash winbind normalize names = yes idmap_hash:name_map = /etc/samba/name_map\&.cfg .fi .if n \{\ .RE .\} .SH "AUTHOR" .PP The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&.
