Likewise Open 5.0.3964 (Default branch)
Likewise Open is an application that joins Linux,Unix, and Mac OS machines to Microsoft ActiveDirectory and securely authenticates users withtheir domain credentials. Features include:joining non-Windows systems to Active Directorydomains in a single step from the command line orfrom a GUI; authenticating users with a singleuser name and password; enforcing the samepassword policies for all platforms; supportingmultiple forests with one-way and two-way crossforest trusts; caching credentials in case yourdomain controller goes down; and providing singlesign-on for SSH and Putty. It does not requireActive Directory schema changes for installation.License: GNU General Public License v2Changes:
Improved performance. When a duplicate UID is found, it will go to AD to get info on a user rather than updating the cache. When a bad username/password is given to domainjoin, it will report "password is incorrect for this account" instead of "call to krb5 failed." Unix attributes from AD are no longer ignored in the default cell.Image

idmap_odsam

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  mes-
	      sages.

       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 modifying 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.
