<description>
<para>This integer value controls what level Samba
advertises itself as for browse elections. The value of this
parameter determines whether <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
has a chance of becoming a local master browser for the <parameter moreinfo="none">
WORKGROUP</parameter> in the local broadcast area.</para>
<para><emphasis>Note :</emphasis>By default, Samba will win
a local master browsing election over all Microsoft operating
systems except a Windows NT 4.0/2000 Domain Controller. This
means that a misconfigured Samba host can effectively isolate
a subnet for browsing purposes. See <filename moreinfo="none">BROWSING.txt
</filename> in the Samba <filename moreinfo="none">docs/</filename> directory
for details.</para>
