See [[smbusers]] for details on the file&#039;s layout.<br /> <br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Default&#039;&#039;&#039;: username map = &#039;&#039;# no username map&#039;&#039;<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Example&#039;&#039;&#039;: username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/users.map<br /> ==Version Sensitivity==<br /> Samba versions prior to 3.0.8 would only support reading the fully qualified username (e.g.: DOMAIN\user) from the username map when performing a kerberos login from a client. However, when looking up a map entry for a user authenticated by NTLM[SSP], only the login name would be used for matches. This resulted in inconsistent behavior sometimes even on the same server.<br /> <br /> The following functionality is obeyed in version 3.0.8 and later:<br /> * When performing local authentication, the username map is applied to the login name before attempting to authenticate the connection.<br /> * When relying upon a external [[domain controller]] for validating authentication requests, [[smbd]] will apply the username map to the fully qualified username (i.e. DOMAIN\user) only after the user has been successfully authenticated.</div>
