13.SH "NAME"
14idmap_nss - Samba's idmap_nss Backend for Winbind
15.SH "DESCRIPTION"
16.PP
17The idmap_nss plugin provides a means to map Unix users and groups to Windows accounts and obseletes the "winbind trusted domains only" smb\.conf option\. This provides a simple means of ensuring that the SID for a Unix user named jsmith is reported as the one assigned to DOMAIN\ejsmith which is necessary for reporting ACLs on files and printers stored on a Samba member server\.
18.SH "EXAMPLES"
19.PP
20This example shows how to use idmap_nss to check the local accounts for its own domain while using allocation to create new mappings for trusted domains
