        <para>This parameter controls whether winbindd will replace
 
8
          whitespace in user and group names with an underscore (_) character.
 
9
          For example, whether the name &quot;Space Kadet&quot; should be
 
10
          replaced with the string &quot;space_kadet&quot;.
 
11
          Frequently Unix shell scripts will have difficulty with usernames
 
12
          contains whitespace due to the default field separator in the shell.
 
13
          If your domain possesses names containing the underscore character,
 
14
          this option may cause problems unless the name aliasing feature
 
15
          is supported by your nss_info plugin.

18
        <para>This feature also enables the name aliasing API which can
 
19
          be used to make domain user and group names to a non-qualified
 
20
          version.  Please refer to the manpage for the configured
 
21
          idmap and nss_info plugin for the specifics on how to configure
 
22
          name aliasing for a specific configuration.  Name aliasing takes
 
23
          precedence (and is mutually exclusive) over the whitespace
 
24
          replacement mechanism discussed previsouly.
