This integer value controls what level Samba advertises itself as for browse elections. The value of this
|
|
parameter determines whether <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
|
|
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> has a chance of becoming a local master browser for the <smbconfoption
|
|
name="workgroup"/> in the local broadcast area.

|
</para>

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