On most distros (including CentOS I think) the daemon name is
rpc.idmapd and its config file is /etc/idmapd.conf.  In theory
you should only have to set the "Domain" keyword in the "General"
section of that file.  In practice, it's often not that easy.
I've typically found that if you run it as:

# rpc.idmapd -f -vvv

you're likely to at least get enough debug into to point you
in the right direction. ;-)

Good luck.
