Identity Mapping Back Ends
Revision as of 11:30, 19 March 2017 by Mmuehlfeld (talk | contribs) (Moved note about testparm bug out of the warning box. It's nothing we need to warn about. Therefore it's better not to put it in a warning admonition. Additionally, the warning is about something different and just appending it it was not clearly visible)
Supported ID Mapping Back Ends
Samba provides the following ID mapping back ends:
- idmap config ad (RFC2307)
- idmap config rid
- idmap config autorid
- idmap config hash
- idmap config ldap
- idmap config nss
Using ID Mapping Back Ends on a Samba AD DC
For setting up Winbindd a Samba Active Directory (AD) domain controller (DC), see Configuring Winbindd on a Samba AD DC.
 | ID mapping back ends are not supported in the smb.conf file on a Samba AD DC. For details, see Failure to Access Shares on Domain Controllers If idmap config Parameters Set in the smb.conf File. |
Note, that on a Samba 4.6 AD DC, the testparm utility incorrectly displays ERROR: Invalid idmap range for domain *! For details, see Bug #12629.
