- <listitem><para>This is a boolean parameter. If it is <constant>yes</constant>, then
- anonymous access to the server will be restricted, namely in the
- case where the server is expecting the client to send a username,
- but it doesn't. Setting it to <constant>yes</constant> will force these anonymous
- connections to be denied, and the client will be required to always
- supply a username and password when connecting. Use of this parameter
- is only recommended for homogeneous NT client environments.</para>

- <para>This parameter makes the use of macro expansions that rely
- on the username (%U, %G, etc) consistent. NT 4.0
- likes to use anonymous connections when refreshing the share list,
- and this is a way to work around that.</para>
-
- <para>When restrict anonymous is <constant>yes</constant>, all anonymous connections
- are denied no matter what they are for. This can effect the ability
- of a machine to access the Samba Primary Domain Controller to revalidate
- its machine account after someone else has logged on the client
- interactively. The NT client will display a message saying that
- the machine's account in the domain doesn't exist or the password is
- bad. The best way to deal with this is to reboot NT client machines
- between interactive logons, using "Shutdown and Restart", rather
- than "Close all programs and logon as a different user".</para>
