[PATCH 1/2] Teach clients to map numeric strings into valid uids and gids.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When a server can not map a uid or gid they can send
an numeric string (one that does not include the @domain)
of the given id. When this occurs the client will can use
that numeric representation iff that id exists on the client.
