+<description>
+ <para>This parameter controls what UNIX permission bits
+ can be modified when a Windows NT client is manipulating the UNIX
+ permission on a directory using the native NT security dialog box.</para>
+
+ <para>This parameter is applied as a mask (OR'ed with) to the
+ changed permission bits, thus forcing any bits in this mask that
+ the user may have modified to be on. Essentially, one bits in this
+ mask may be treated as a set of bits that, when modifying security
+ on a directory, the user has always set to be 'on'.</para>
+
+ <para>If not set explicitly this parameter is 000, which
+ allows a user to modify all the user/group/world permissions on a
+ directory without restrictions.</para>
+
+ <note><para>Users who can access the
+ Samba server through other means can easily bypass this restriction,
+ so it is primarily useful for standalone &quot;appliance&quot; systems.
+ Administrators of most normal systems will probably want to leave
+ it set as 0000.</para></note>
