-<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
-    
-<p><br>This program is part of the <strong>Samba</strong> suite.
-<p><br><strong>smbcontrol</strong> is a very small program, which sends messages to an 
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> or an <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> daemon 
-running on the system.
-<p><br><a name="OPTIONS"></a>
-<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
-    
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><a name="minusi"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>-i</strong></strong> Run interactively. Individual commands of the form
-<a href="smbcontrol.1.html#destination">destination</a> <a href="smbcontrol.1.html#messagetype">message-type</a> <a href="smbcontrol.1.html#parameters">parameters</a>
-can be entered on STDIN. An empty command line or a "q" will quit the program.
-<p><br><a name="destination"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>destination</strong></strong> is one of "nmbd", "smbd" or a process ID.
-<p><br>The <strong>smbd</strong> destination causes the message to be "broadcast" to all
-smbd daemons.
-<p><br>The <strong>nmbd</strong> destination causes the message to be sent to the nmbd
-daemon specified in the <strong>nmbd.pid</strong> file.
-<p><br>If a single process ID is given, the message is sent to only that
-process.
-<p><br><a name="messagetype"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>message-type</strong></strong> is one of: debug, force-election, ping, profile,
-debuglevel, profilelevel, or printer-notify.
-<p><br>The <strong>debug</strong> 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.
-<p><br>The <strong>force-election</strong> message-type can only be sent to the <strong>nmbd</strong>
-destination. This message causes the <strong>nmbd</strong> daemon to force a
-new browse master election.
-<p><br>The <strong>ping</strong> 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.
-<p><br>The <strong>profile</strong> 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.
-<p><br>The <strong>debuglevel</strong> 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.
-<p><br>The <strong>profilelevel</strong> 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.
-<p><br>The <strong>printer-notify</strong> 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 smbd.

+\fBsmbcontrol\fR [ \fBdestination\fR ]  [ \fBmessage-type\fR ]  [ \fBparameter\fR ] 
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This tool is part of the  Samba <URL:samba.7.html> suite.
+.PP
+\fBsmbcontrol\fR is a very small program, which 
+sends messages to an smbd(8) <URL:smbd.8.html> or 
+an nmbd(8) <URL:nmbd.8.html> daemon running on the 
+system.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.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: debug, 
+force-election, ping
+, profile,  debuglevel, profilelevel, 
+or printer-notify.
+
+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 of the 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 of the destinations.
+
+The printer-notify 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 smbd.
+.TP
+\fBparameters\fR
+any parameters required for the message-type
+.SH "VERSION"

+This man page is correct for version 2.2 of 
+the Samba suite.

+.SH "AUTHOR"
+.PP
+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.
+.PP
+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
+ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/ <URL:ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/>) and updated for the Samba 2.0 
+release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for 
+Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter
