 <description>
	<para>This boolean parameter is only available if
	Samba has been configured and compiled  with the option <command moreinfo="none">
	--with-utmp</command>. If set to <constant>yes</constant> then Samba will attempt
	to add utmp or utmpx records (depending on the UNIX system) whenever a
	connection is made to a Samba server. Sites may use this to record the
	user connecting to a Samba share.</para>

	<para>Due to the requirements of the utmp record, we
	are required to create a unique identifier for the
	incoming user.  Enabling this option creates an n^2
	algorithm to find this number.  This may impede
	performance on large installations. </para>
