+
+This option allows you to specify a file containing unique mappings
+of individual NT Domain Group names (in any domain) to UNIX group
+names.  This allows NT domain groups to be presented correctly to
+NT users, despite the lack of native support for the NT Security model
+(based on VAX/VMS) in UNIX.  The reader is advised to become familiar
+with the NT Domain system and its administration.
+
+This option is used in conjunction with link(bf('local group map'))(localgroupmap)
+and link(bf('username map'))(usernamemap).  The use of these three
+options is trivial and often unnecessary in the case where Samba is
+not expected to interact with any other SAM databases (whether local
+workstations or Domain Controllers).
+
+
+The map file is parsed line by line.  If any line begins with a tt('#')
+or a tt(';') then it is ignored.  Each line should contain a single UNIX
+group name on the left then an NT Domain Group name on the right.
+The line can be either of the form:
+
+tt(  UNIXgroupname	\\DOMAIN_NAME\\DomainGroupName )
+
+or:
+
+tt(  UNIXgroupname	DomainGroupName )
+
+In the case where Samba is either an bf(EXPERIMENTAL) Domain Controller
+or it is a member of a domain using link(bf("security = domain"))(security),
+the latter format can be used: the default Domain name is the Samba Server's
+Domain name, specified by link(bf("workgroup = MYGROUP"))(workgroup).
+
+Any UNIX groups that are em(NOT) specified in this map file are assumed
+to be Domain Groups.
+
+In this case, when Samba is an bf(EXPERIMENTAL) Domain Controller, Samba
+will present em(ALL) such unspecified UNIX groups as its own NT Domain
+Groups, with the same name.
+
+In the case where Samba is member of a domain using
+link(bf("security = domain"))(security), Samba will check the UNIX name with
+its Domain Controller (see link(bf("password server"))(passwordserver))
+as if it was an NT Domain Group.  If the UNIX group is not an NT Group,
+such unspecified (unmapped) UNIX groups which also are not NT Domain
+Groups are treated as Local Groups in the Samba Server's local SAM database.
+NT Administrators will recognise these as Workstation Local Groups,
+which are managed by running bf(USRMGR.EXE) and selecting a remote
+Domain named "\\WORKSTATION_NAME", or by running bf(MUSRMGR.EXE) on
+a local Workstation.
+
+Note that adding an entry to map an arbitrary NT group in an arbitrary
+Domain to an arbitrary UNIX group requires the following: that the UNIX
+group exists on the UNIX server; that the NT Domain Group exists in the
+specified NT Domain; that the UNIX Server knows about the specified Domain; 
+that all the UNIX users (who are expecting to access the Samba
+Server as the correct NT user and with the correct NT group permissions)
+in the UNIX group be mapped to the correct NT Domain users in the specified
+NT Domain using link(bf('username map'))(usernamemap).
