IDMAP_ODSAM(8)                                                                                IDMAP_ODSAM(8)



NAME
       idmap_odsam - Open Directory ID mapping backend for winbindd

SYNOPSIS
       The  idmap_odsam  plugin  is the default backend used by Mac OS X for mapping SIDs and user and group
       IDs using Open Directory. It implements both the "idmap" and "idmap alloc" APIs.


       idmap_odsam should always be used in conjunction with the odsam passdb backend.


IDMAP OPTIONS
       odsam: msglevel = LEVEL
              LEVEL is the integer log level at which idmap_odsam should emit log messages.  The lower LEVEL
              is, the more verbose the log messages.


       odsam: traceall = BOOL
              If  this  is  true,  idmap_odsam will emit log messages for all Open Directory calls. If it is
              false (the default), it will only log errors.


IDMAP ALLOC OPTIONS
       The idmap_odsam does not allocate any mappings. On Mac OS X, all SID mappings should be made by modi-fying modifying
       fying the appropriate Open Directory record.


EXAMPLES
            [global]
                idmap domain = default
                idmap config default:default = yes
                idmap config default:backend = odsam

                idmap alloc backend = odsam

                passdb backend = odsam

                odsam: msglevel = 0    # Log at debugging levels
                odsam: traceall = no   # Do not trace Open Directory calls



BUGS
       Please report bugs to Apple.
