+	<para>This parameter allows the Samba administrator 
+	to stop <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbd</refentrytitle>
+	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>	from following symbolic 
+	links in a particular share. Setting this 
+	parameter to <constant>no</constant> prevents any file or directory 
+	that is a symbolic link from being followed (the user will get an 
+	error).  This option is very useful to stop users from adding a 
+	symbolic link to <filename moreinfo="none">/etc/passwd</filename> in their home 
+	directory for instance.  However it will slow filename lookups 
+	down slightly.</para>
+
+	<para>This option is enabled (i.e. <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command> will 
+		follow symbolic links) by default.</para>
