-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have been the most happy with the hash idmap. It really is the least invasive and "just works" (does that need to be trademarked these days?). Since it hashes the SID with the same algorithm, all members get the same UID/GID mappings, which is a big win.
