	<title>DESCRIPTION</title>

	<para><application>masktest</application> is a utility for 
		detecting differences in behaviour between Samba's 
		own implementation and that of a remote server.
		It will run generate random filenames/masks and 
		check if these match the same files they do on the remote file as 
		they do on the local server. It will display any differences it finds.
	</para>

	<para>
		This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in 
		behaviour between Samba and Windows servers.
