-The file
+The NFSv4 protocol represents the local system's UID and GID values
+on the wire as strings of the form
+.IR user@domain .
+The process of translating from UID to string and string to UID is
+referred to as "ID mapping."
+.PP
+The system derives the
+.I user
+part of the string by performing a password or group lookup.
+The lookup mechanism is configured in
+.IR /etc/idmapd.conf .
+.PP
+By default, the
+.I domain
+part of the string is the system's DNS domain name.
+It can also be specified in
+.I /etc/idmapd.conf
+if the system is multi-homed,
+or if the system's DNS domain name does
+not match the name of the system's Kerberos realm.
+.PP
+The

Sorry for the extensive man page changes. I added the description for the new "-d" option, then realized there was no explanation about what an "NFSv4 domain name" is.
