Text-base idmap backend module for samba 3.0.2a

[Jamil Amir-ajamil01]

Thanks Simo,

Is it possible I can resolve the following problem without using this patch.

The problem with winbind and NIS accounts( mix accounts same and different from windows domain and also trusted domain users).

Currently if I give permission from windows and check from Unix, it appears to be given a new UID's (10001) from winbind, infect the account is a valid NIS account in Unix. I think it should map windows accounts with the same Unix accounts. If the Unix account is different from windows then it should check static mapping file. Same for the groups mapping too.

Also we are not using LDAP.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards
Amir

Someone posted it on samba-techinical a few months ago, you should be
able to find it out in the archives.

I tought about adding it in our official trees, but then avoided that as
it is inefficient and idmapping is not meant to be touched by admins
anyway, so I find no meaning in using an human readable/writable format
(and still you can do that with ldap :-/).

Simo.
