		<term><anchor id="DELETESHARECOMMAND"/>delete share command (G)</term>
		<listitem><para>Samba 2.2.0 introduced the ability to dynamically 
		add and delete shares via the Windows NT 4.0 Server Manager.  The 
		<parameter moreinfo="none">delete share command</parameter> is used to define an 
		external program or script which will remove an existing service 
		definition from <filename moreinfo="none">smb.conf</filename>.  In order to successfully 
		execute the <parameter moreinfo="none">delete share command</parameter>, <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command>
		requires that the administrator be connected using a root account (i.e. 
		uid == 0).
		</para>
		
		<para>
		When executed, <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command> will automatically invoke the 
		<parameter moreinfo="none">delete share command</parameter> with two parameters.
