7 <para>This option enables a couple of enhancements to
8 cross-subnet browse propagation that have been added in Samba
9 but which are not standard in Microsoft implementations.
10 </para>
11
12 <para>The first enhancement to browse propagation consists of a regular
13 wildcard query to a Samba WINS server for all Domain Master Browsers,
14 followed by a browse synchronization with each of the returned
15 DMBs. The second enhancement consists of a regular randomised browse
16 synchronization with all currently known DMBs.</para>
17
18 <para>You may wish to disable this option if you have a problem with empty
19 workgroups not disappearing from browse lists. Due to the restrictions
20 of the browse protocols, these enhancements can cause a empty workgroup
21 to stay around forever which can be annoying.</para>
22
23 <para>In general you should leave this option enabled as it makes
24 cross-subnet browse propagation much more reliable.</para>
