+ <para>This parameter determines if <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> will produce Lanman announce
+ broadcasts that are needed by OS/2 clients in order for them to see
+ the Samba server in their browse list. This parameter can have three
+ values, <constant>yes</constant>, <constant>no</constant>, or
+ <constant>auto</constant>. The default is <constant>auto</constant>.
+ If set to <constant>no</constant> Samba will never produce these
+ broadcasts. If set to <constant>yes</constant> Samba will produce
+ Lanman announce broadcasts at a frequency set by the parameter
+ <parameter moreinfo="none">lm interval</parameter>. If set to <constant>auto</constant>
+ Samba will not send Lanman announce broadcasts by default but will
+ listen for them. If it hears such a broadcast on the wire it will
+ then start sending them at a frequency set by the parameter
+ <parameter moreinfo="none">lm interval</parameter>.</para>
