+<samba:parameter name="remote browse sync"

+	<para>
+	This option allows you to setup <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
+	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> to periodically request 
+	synchronization of browse lists with the master browser of a Samba 
+	server that is on a remote segment. This option will allow you to 
+	gain browse lists for multiple workgroups across routed networks. This 
+	is done in a manner that does not work with any non-Samba servers.
+	</para>
+
+	<para>
+	This is useful if you want your Samba server and all local 
+	clients to appear in a remote workgroup for which the normal browse 
+	propagation rules don't work. The remote workgroup can be anywhere 
+	that you can send IP packets to.
+	</para>
+
+	<para>
+	For example:
+<programlisting>
+<parameter>remote browse sync = 192.168.2.255 192.168.4.255</parameter>
+</programlisting>
+	the above line would cause <command>nmbd</command> to request the master browser on the 
+	specified subnets or addresses to synchronize their browse lists with 
+	the local server.
+	</para>
+
+	<para>
+	The IP addresses you choose would normally be the broadcast 
+	addresses of the remote networks, but can also be the IP addresses 
+	of known browse masters if your network config is that stable. If 
+	a machine IP address is given Samba makes NO attempt to validate 
+	that the remote machine is available, is listening, nor that it 
+	is in fact the browse master on its segment.
+	</para>
+
+	<para>
+	The <smbconfoption name="remote browse sync"/> may be used on networks
+	where there is no WINS server, and may be used on disjoint networks where
+	each network has its own WINS server.
