+.PP
+Available message types are:
+
+.TP
+close-share
+Order smbd to close the client connections to the named share\&. Note that this doesn't affect client connections to any other shares\&. This message-type takes an argument of the share name for which client connections will be closed, or the "*" character which will close all currently open shares\&. This may be useful if you made changes to the access controls on the share\&. This message can only be sent to \fBsmbd\fR\&.
+

+.TP
+debug
+Set debug level to the value specified by the parameter\&. This can be sent to any of the destinations\&.

.TP
-\fB-i\fR
-Run interactively. Individual commands
-of the form destination message-type parameters can be entered
-on STDIN. An empty command line or a "q" will quit the
-program.
-.TP
-\fBdestination\fR
-One of \fInmbd\fR
-\fIsmbd\fR or a process ID.
-
-The \fIsmbd\fR destination causes the
-message to "broadcast" to all smbd daemons.
-
-The \fInmbd\fR destination causes the
-message to be sent to the nmbd daemon specified in the
-\fInmbd.pid\fR file.
-
-If a single process ID is given, the message is sent
-to only that process.
-.TP
-\fBmessage-type\fR
-One of: close-share,
-debug,
-force-election, ping
-, profile, debuglevel, profilelevel,
-or printnotify.
-
-The close-share message-type sends a
-message to smbd which will then close the client connections to
-the named share. Note that this doesn't affect client connections
-to any other shares. This message-type takes an argument of the
-share name for which client connections will be closed, or the
-"*" character which will close all currently open shares.
-This may be useful if you made changes to the access controls on the share.
-This message can only be sent to smbd.
-
-The debug 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.
-
-The force-election message-type can only be
-sent to the nmbd destination. This message
-causes the \fBnmbd\fR daemon to force a new browse
-master election.
-
-The ping 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.
-
-The profile 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 smbd or nmbd destinations.
-
-The debuglevel 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.
-
-The profilelevel 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 smbd or nmbd destinations.
-
-The printnotify 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 the following arguments:
+force-election
+This message causes the \fBnmbd\fR daemon to force a new browse master election\&.
+
+
+.TP
+ping
+Send specified number of "ping" messages and wait for the same number of reply "pong" messages\&. This can be sent to any of the destinations\&.
+
+
+.TP
+profile
+Change profile settings of a daemon, 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 smbd or nmbd destinations\&.
+
+
+.TP
+debuglevel
+Request debuglevel of a certain daemon and write it to stdout\&. This can be sent to any of the destinations\&.
+
+
+.TP
+profilelevel
+Request profilelevel of a certain daemon and write it to stdout\&. This can be sent to any smbd or nmbd destinations\&.
+
+
+.TP
+printnotify
+Order smbd to send a printer notify message to any Windows NT clients connected to a printer\&. This message-type takes the following arguments:
+
+
