Jakub Hrozek 2013-01-25 10:03:50 UTC Doc Text Cause: Some Active Directory deployments do not carry the POSIX attributes such as UID number at all.

Consequence: In order to use accounts from Active Directory in a Linux environment the AD administrators would have to enable a special Services for UNIX extenstion with older AD servers and assign UID and GID numbers.

Change: A new ID mapping library was implemented in the SSSD. The ID mapping library is capable of automatically generating UNIX IDs from Windows Security Identifiers (SIDs)

Result: The administrator is able to use Windows accounts easily in a UNIX environment.
