<para>
This option specifies the default backend that is used when no special
- configuration set by <smbconfoption name="idmap config"/> matches the
- specific request.

- <para>
- This default backend also specifies the place where winbind-generated
- idmap entries will be stored. So it is highly recommended that you
- specify a writable backend like <citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>idmap_tdb</refentrytitle> <manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
- </citerefentry> or <citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>idmap_ldap</refentrytitle> <manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
- </citerefentry> as the idmap backend. The <citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>idmap_rid</refentrytitle> <manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
- </citerefentry> and <citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>idmap_ad</refentrytitle> <manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
- </citerefentry> backends are not writable and thus will generate
- unexpected results if set as idmap backend.

- <para>
- To use the rid and ad backends, please specify them via the
- <smbconfoption name="idmap config"/> parameter, possibly also for the
- domain your machine is member of, specified by <smbconfoption
- name="workgroup"/>.

- <para>Examples of SID/uid/gid backends include tdb (<citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>idmap_tdb</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
- ldap (<citerefentry><refentrytitle>idmap_ldap</refentrytitle>
- <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>), rid (<citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>idmap_rid</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
- and ad (<citerefentry><refentrytitle>idmap_ad</refentrytitle>
- <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
+ configuration set, but it is now deprecated in favour of the new
