8 | This integer value controls what level Samba advertises itself as for browse elections. The value of this
|
---|
9 | parameter determines whether <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
|
---|
10 | <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> has a chance of becoming a local master browser for the <smbconfoption
|

11 | name="workgroup"/> in the local broadcast area.

15 | Note:</emphasis> By default, Samba will win a local master browsing election over all Microsoft operating
|
---|
16 | systems except a Windows NT 4.0/2000 Domain Controller. This means that a misconfigured Samba host can
|
---|
17 | effectively isolate a subnet for browsing purposes. This parameter is largely auto-configured in the Samba-3
|
---|
18 | release series and it is seldom necessary to manually override the default setting. Please refer to
|
---|
19 | the chapter on Network Browsing in the Samba-3 HOWTO document for further information regarding the use
|
---|
20 | of this parameter.
|
---|
21 | <emphasis>Note:</emphasis> The maximum value for this parameter is 255. If you use higher values, counting
|
---|
22 | will start at 0!
