+<description>
+ <para>The concept of a &quot;port&quot; is fairly foreign
+ to UNIX hosts. Under Windows NT/2000 print servers, a port
+ is associated with a port monitor and generally takes the form of
+ a local port (i.e. LPT1:, COM1:, FILE:) or a remote port
+ (i.e. LPD Port Monitor, etc...). By default, Samba has only one
+ port defined--<constant>&quot;Samba Printer Port&quot;</constant>. Under
+ Windows NT/2000, all printers must have a valid port name.
+ If you wish to have a list of ports displayed (<command moreinfo="none">smbd
+ </command> does not use a port name for anything) other than
+ the default <constant>&quot;Samba Printer Port&quot;</constant>, you
+ can define <parameter moreinfo="none">enumports command</parameter> to point to
+ a program which should generate a list of ports, one per line,
+ to standard output. This listing will then be used in response
+ to the level 1 and 2 EnumPorts() RPC.</para>
