samba - Jan 2005 - Consistent UID from SID for winbind

Hi,
Some tie ago, I read that winbind can create unix uid from SID, thus 
making it consistent between servers without LDAP.
Is it real?
Could yomeone point me to infos? Manual? Howto?
Thanks a lot

PS: This is the idea:

Your idea is addressed with the idmap_rid-Plugin. There is documentation in the
howto-collection.

Let us know how it works for you.
