<samba:parameter xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common">
		<term><anchor id="LMANNOUNCE"/>lm announce (G)</term>
		<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>
