+		or <constant>printer-notify</constant>.</para>
+
+		<para>The <constant>debug</constant> message-type allows 
+		the debug level to be set to the value specified by the 
+		parameter. This can be sent to any of the destinations.</para>
+
+		<para>The <constant>force-election</constant> message-type can only be 
+		sent to the <constant>nmbd</constant> destination. This message 
+		causes the <command>nmbd</command> daemon to force a new browse
+		master election.</para>
+
+		<para>The <constant>ping</constant> message-type sends the 
+		number of "ping" messages specified by the parameter and waits 
+		for the same number of  reply "pong" messages. This can be sent to 
+		any of the destinations.</para>
+
+		<para>The <constant>profile</constant> message-type sends a 
+		message to an smbd to change the profile settings based on the 
+		parameter. The parameter can be "on" to turn on profile stats 
+		collection, "off" to turn off profile stats collection, "count"
+		to enable only collection of count stats (time stats are 
+		disabled), and "flush" to zero the current profile stats. This can 
+		be sent to any of the destinations.</para>
+
+		<para>The <constant>debuglevel</constant> message-type sends 
+		a "request debug level" message. The current debug level setting 
+		is returned by a  "debuglevel" message. This can be 
+		sent to any of the destinations.</para>
+
+		<para>The <constant>profilelevel</constant> message-type sends 
+		a "request profile level" message.  The current profile level 
+		setting is returned by a  "profilelevel" message. This can be sent 
+		to any of the destinations.</para>
+
+		<para>The <constant>printer-notify</constant> message-type sends a 
+		message to smbd which in turn sends a printer notify message to 
+		any Windows NT clients connected to  a printer.  This message-type 
+		takes an argument of the printer name to  send notify messages to.   
+		This message can only be sent to <constant>smbd</constant>.</para>

+	<title>AUTHOR</title>
+	
+	<para>The original Samba software and related utilities 
+	were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
+	by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar 
+	to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
+	
+	<para>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. 
+	The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another 
+	excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
+	<ulink url="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/">
+	ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</ulink>) and updated for the Samba 2.0 
+	release by Jeremy Allison.  The conversion to DocBook for 
+	Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter</para>
