** Description changed:

- Environment: IPA + NFSv4 (sec=krb5).
+ [Impact]
+ 
+ * In a multi-domain environment setup with LDAP or IPA, the username is
+ not parsed correctly, resulting in id mapping issues.
+ 
+ * As a result, NFSv4 cannot be used in a multi-domain environment at all
+ if the username is of the form user@authentication_domain@idmap_domain
+ 
+ * The attached patch fixes an almost 10 year old bug in the libnfsidmap
+ library. The patch is included already in a similar form in current RHEL
+ releases.
+ 
+ * Affects at least libnfsidmap2 0.25-5 on Ubuntu 16.04, 16.10, 17.04,
+ 17.10.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ * IPA with 2 different user domains. For example: user1@domain1 and
+ user2@domain2.
+ 
+ * NFSv4 server enrolled into IPA.
+ 
+ * NFS client enrolled into IPA. User and group names coming from IPA
+ have an '@' in them.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ * The attached patch has been in production in a major organisation with
+ more than 500 Ubuntu clients for more than a year now and has not shown
+ any issues.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+ 
+ Environment: IPA + NFSv4 (sec=krb5)
  
  nss.c uses wrong '@' sign to detect the NFS domain resulting in "nobody"
  ownerships and the following error messages in an IPA environment:
