+ <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+ <para>The idmap_ad plugin provides a way for Winbind to read
+ id mappings from an AD server that uses RFC2307/SFU schema
+ extensions. This module implements only the &quot;idmap&quot;
+ API, and is READONLY. Mappings must be provided in advance
+ by the administrator by adding the posixAccount/posixGroup
+ classess and relative attribute/value pairs to the users and
+ groups objects in AD</para>

+ Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the
+ backend is authoritative. Note that the range acts as a filter.
+ If specified any UID or GID stored in AD that fall outside the
+ range is ignored and the corresponding map is discarded.
+ It is intended as a way to avoid accidental UID/GID overlaps
+ between local and remotely defined IDs.

+ in Windows 2003 R2 or the Service for Unix (SFU) schema.

+ <title>EXAMPLES</title>
+ <para>
+ The following example shows how to retrieve idmappings from our principal and
+ and trusted AD domains. All is needed is to set default to yes. If trusted
+ domains are present id conflicts must be resolved beforehand, there is no
+ guarantee on the order conflicting mappings would be resolved at this point.
+
+ This example also shows how to leave a small non conflicting range for local
+ id allocation that may be used in internal backends like BUILTIN.
