+<title>How can I make samba use netbios scope ID's</title>
+
+<para>By default Samba uses a blank scope ID. This means
+all your windows boxes must also have a blank scope ID.
+If you really want to use a non-blank scope ID then you will
+need to use the 'netbios scope' smb.conf option.
+All your PCs will need to have the same setting for
+this to work. Scope ID's are not recommended.</para>
