<listitem>
	<para>This parameter determines if <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> will produce Lanman announce 
	broadcasts that are needed by OS/2 clients in order for them to see 
	the Samba server in their browse list. This parameter can have three 
	values, <constant>yes</constant>, <constant>no</constant>, or
	<constant>auto</constant>. The default is <constant>auto</constant>.  
	If set to <constant>no</constant> Samba will never produce these 
	broadcasts. If set to <constant>yes</constant> Samba will produce 
	Lanman announce broadcasts at a frequency set by the parameter 
	<parameter moreinfo="none">lm interval</parameter>. If set to <constant>auto</constant> 
	Samba will not send Lanman announce broadcasts by default but will 
	listen for them. If it hears such a broadcast on the wire it will 
	then start sending them at a frequency set by the parameter 
	<parameter moreinfo="none">lm interval</parameter>.</para>
