Sumit,
Thank you for the response and the confirmation. Do you think it be
possible to have the daemon reference the sIDHistory attribute for a
specific domain SID and "if" it finds it use it for the id-mapping
algorithm? This way the previous UID/GID values would be generated for
users migrated to new domains as an example. I'm sure there would be other
useful results or am I oversimplifying a complex request?

Either way I think it would be a useful feature if development is viable.

Thanks as always!
