+ This boolean option controls whether an incoming session setup
+ should kill other connections coming from the same IP. This matches
+ the default Windows 2003 behaviour.
+
+ Setting this parameter to yes becomes necessary when you have a flaky
+ network and windows decides to reconnect while the old connection
+ still has files with share modes open. These files become inaccessible
+ over the new connection.
+
+ The client sends a zero VC on the new connection, and Windows 2003
+ kills all other connections coming from the same IP. This way the
+ locked files are accessible again.
+
+ Please be aware that enabling this option will kill connections behind
+ a masquerading router.
