+ <para>
+ Windows allows specifying how a file will be shared with
+ other processes when it is opened. Sharing violations occur when
+ a file is opened by a different process using options that violate
+ the share settings specified by other processes. This parameter causes
+ smbd to act as a Windows server does, and defer returning a "sharing
+ violation" error message for up to one second, allowing the client
+ to close the file causing the violation in the meantime.

+ <para>UNIX by default does not have this behaviour.</para>
+
+ <para>
+ There should be no reason to turn off this parameter, as it is
+ designed to enable Samba to more correctly emulate Windows.
