The behavior matches that of the Microsoft Windows Explorer\. 48 39 .sp 49 40 The method of locating the list of workgroups (domains also) varies depending on the setting of the context variable 50 (context ->options.browse_max_lmb_count). It is the responsibility of the application that calls this library to set this to a sensible value. This is a compile-time option. This value determines the maximum number of local master browsers to query for the list of workgroups. In order to ensure that the list is complete for those present on the network, all master browsers must be querried. If there are a large number of workgroups on the network, the time spent querying will be significant. For small networks (just a few workgroups), it is suggested to set this value to 0, instructing libsmbclient to query all local master browsers. In an environment that has many workgroups a more reasonable setting may be around 3.41 (context\->options\.browse_max_lmb_count)\.
