+\fB-s <configuration file>\fR
+The file specified contains the
+configuration details required by the server. The
+information in this file includes server-specific
+information such as what printcap file to use, as well
+as descriptions of all the services that the server is
+to provide. See \fIsmb.conf(5)\fR for more information.
+The default configuration file name is determined at
+compile time.
+.TP
+\fB-d|--debug=debuglevel\fR
+\fIdebuglevel\fR is an integer
+from 0 to 10. The default value if this parameter is
+not specified is zero.
+
+The higher this value, the more detail will be
+logged to the log files about the activities of the
+server. At level 0, only critical errors and serious
+warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for
+day to day running - it generates a small amount of
+information about operations carried out.
+
+Levels above 1 will generate considerable
+amounts of log data, and should only be used when
+investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are designed for
+use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log
+data, most of which is extremely cryptic.
+
+Note that specifying this parameter here will
+override the log
+level file.
+.TP
+\fB-R <name resolve order>\fR
+This option is used to determine what naming
+services and in what order to resolve
+host names to IP addresses. The option takes a space-separated
+string of different name resolution options.
+
+The options are: "lmhosts", "host", "wins" and "bcast".
+They cause names to be resolved as follows :
+.RS
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+lmhosts:
+Lookup an IP address in the Samba lmhosts file. If the
+line in lmhosts has no name type attached to the
+NetBIOS name
+(see the \fBlmhosts\fR(5) for details)
+then any name type matches for lookup.
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+host:
+Do a standard host name to IP address resolution, using
+the system \fI/etc/hosts\fR, NIS, or DNS
+lookups. This method of name resolution is operating
+system dependent, for instance on IRIX or Solaris this
+may be controlled by the \fI/etc/nsswitch.conf\fR file). Note that this method is only used
+if the NetBIOS name type being queried is the 0x20
+(server) name type, otherwise it is ignored.
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+wins:
+Query a name with the IP address listed in the
+\fIwins server\fR parameter. If no
+WINS server has been specified this method will be
+ignored.
+.TP 0.2i
+\(bu
+bcast:
+Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces
+listed in the \fIinterfaces\fR
+parameter. This is the least reliable of the name
+resolution methods as it depends on the target host
+being on a locally connected subnet.
+.RE
+
+If this parameter is not set then the name resolve order
+defined in the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) file parameter
+(\fIname resolve order\fR) will be used.
+
+The default order is lmhosts, host, wins, bcast. Without
+this parameter or any entry in the \fIname resolve order\fR parameter of the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) file, the name resolution methods
+will be attempted in this order.
