Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mount.cifs.rst: add missing reference for sssd
Date: Sun, 10 Mar 2024 22:24:24 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240311012425.156879-1-pc@manguebit.com> (raw)

Reference sssd in mount.cifs(8) as it can be used instead of winbind
via cifs.idmap utility.  It's also enabled by default in most systems.
