<samba:parameter xmlns:samba="http://samba.org/common">
		<term><anchor id="ANNOUNCEAS"/>announce as (G)</term>
		<listitem><para>This specifies what type of server <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
		<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> will announce itself as, to a network neighborhood browse 
		list. By default this is set to Windows NT. The valid options 
		are : &quot;NT Server&quot; (which can also be written as &quot;NT&quot;), 
		&quot;NT Workstation&quot;, &quot;Win95&quot; or &quot;WfW&quot; meaning Windows NT Server, 
		Windows NT Workstation, Windows 95 and Windows for Workgroups 
		respectively. Do not change this parameter unless you have a 
		specific need to stop Samba appearing as an NT server as this 
		may prevent Samba servers from participating as browser servers 
		correctly.</para>

		<para>Default: <command moreinfo="none">announce as = NT Server</command></para>
		
		<para>Example: <command moreinfo="none">announce as = Win95</command></para>
