<samba:parameter xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common">
		<term><anchor id="PREEXEC"/>preexec (S)</term>
		<listitem><para>This option specifies a command to be run whenever 
		the service is connected to. It takes the usual substitutions.</para>

		<para>An interesting example is to send the users a welcome 
		message every time they log in. Maybe a message of the day? Here 
		is an example:</para>

		<para><command moreinfo="none">preexec = csh -c 'echo \&quot;Welcome to %S!\&quot; |
		 /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient -M %m -I %I' &amp; </command></para>

		<para>Of course, this could get annoying after a while :-)</para>

		<para>See also <link linkend="PREEXECCLOSE"><parameter moreinfo="none">preexec close
		</parameter></link> and <link linkend="POSTEXEC"><parameter moreinfo="none">postexec
		</parameter></link>.</para>

		<para>Default: <emphasis>none (no command executed)</emphasis></para>
		<para>Example: <command moreinfo="none">preexec = echo \&quot;%u connected to %S from %m
		(%I)\&quot; &gt;&gt; /tmp/log</command></para>
		</listitem>
