+.SH "NAME"
+cifs.idmap \- Userspace helper for mapping ids for Common Internet File System (CIFS)
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\ 'u
+cifs\&.idmap [\-\-version|\-v] {keyid}
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This tool is part of the cifs-utils suite\&.
+.PP
+cifs\&.idmap is a userspace helper program for the linux CIFS client filesystem\&. There are a number of activities that the kernel cannot easily do itself\&. This program is a callout program that does these things for the kernel and then returns the result\&.
+.PP
+cifs\&.idmap is generally intended to be run when the kernel calls request\-key(8)
+for a particular key type\&. While it can be run directly from the command\-line, it is not generally intended to be run that way\&.
+.PP
+cifs\&.idmap works in conjuction with winbind facility of Samba suite to map owner and group SIDs to uids and gids respectively.  It is best utilized when a mount option of cifsacl is specified when mounting a cifs share, winbind is specified as one of the search entries for passwd and group databases in file /etc/nsswitch.conf, file smb.conf has winbind specific entries, and winbind daemon program is running. It is also strongly recomemended to use mount options of uid and gid to specify a default uid and gid to map owner SIDs and group SIDs respectively in case services of winbind facility are unavailable.
+.SH "OPTIONS"

+Print version number and exit\&.
+.RE
+.SH "CONFIGURATION FOR KEYCTL"
+.PP
+cifs\&.idmap is designed to be called from the kernel via the request\-key callout program\&. This requires that request\-key be told where and how to call this program\&. Currently cifs\&.idmap handles a key type of:
+.PP
+cifs\&.idmap
+.RS 4
+This keytype is for mapping a SID to either an uid or a gid
+.RE
+.PP
+To make this program useful for CIFS, you will need to set up entry for it in request\-key\&.conf(5)\&. Here is an example of an entry for this key type:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+#OPERATION  TYPE           D C PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2\&.\&.\&.
+#=========  =============  = = ================================
+create      cifs\&.idmap    * * @sbindir@/cifs\&.idmap %k
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+See
+\fBrequest-key.conf5\fR()
+for more info on each field\&.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+.PP

+\fBrequest-key.conf\fR(5),
+\fBmount.cifs\fR(8)
+.SH "AUTHOR"
+.PP
+Shirish Pargaonkar wrote the cifs\&.idmap program\&.
+.PP
+The
+Linux CIFS Mailing list
+is the preferred place to ask questions regarding these programs\&.
