<samba:parameter name="enhanced browsing" context="G" advanced="1" developer="1" type="boolean" xmlns:samba="http://www.samba.org/samba/DTD/samba-doc"> <description> <para>This option enables a couple of enhancements to cross-subnet browse propagation that have been added in Samba but which are not standard in Microsoft implementations. </para> <para>The first enhancement to browse propagation consists of a regular wildcard query to a Samba WINS server for all Domain Master Browsers, followed by a browse synchronization with each of the returned DMBs. The second enhancement consists of a regular randomised browse synchronization with all currently known DMBs.</para> <para>You may wish to disable this option if you have a problem with empty workgroups not disappearing from browse lists. Due to the restrictions of the browse protocols, these enhancements can cause a empty workgroup to stay around forever which can be annoying.</para> <para>In general you should leave this option enabled as it makes cross-subnet browse propagation much more reliable.</para> </description> <value type="default">yes</value> </samba:parameter>
