+that is available on the server. This is the source of the list of shares and printers when browsing
+an SMB/CIFS server (also Windows machines) using the Windows Explorer to browse resources through
+the Windows Network Neighborhood (also called My Network Places) through to a Windows server. At 
+this point the client has opened a connection to the <literal>\\server\IPC4</literal> resource.
