+ <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+
+ <para><application>gentest</application> is a utility for
+ detecting differences in behaviour between SMB servers.
+ It will run a random set of generic operations against
+ <parameter>//server1/share1</parameter> and then the same
+ random set against <parameter>//server2/share2</parameter>
+ and display the differences in the responses it gets.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in
+ behaviour between Samba and Windows servers.
