<para>

This option allows you to setup <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
|
|
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> to periodically request
|
|
synchronization of browse lists with the master browser of a Samba
|
|
server that is on a remote segment. This option will allow you to
|
|
gain browse lists for multiple workgroups across routed networks. This
|
|
is done in a manner that does not work with any non-Samba servers.
|

|
<para>
|
|
This is useful if you want your Samba server and all local
|
|
clients to appear in a remote workgroup for which the normal browse
|
|
propagation rules don't work. The remote workgroup can be anywhere
|
|
that you can send IP packets to.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
For example:
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
<parameter>remote browse sync = 192.168.2.255 192.168.4.255</parameter>
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
the above line would cause <command>nmbd</command> to request the master browser on the
|
|
specified subnets or addresses to synchronize their browse lists with
|
|
the local server.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The IP addresses you choose would normally be the broadcast
|
|
addresses of the remote networks, but can also be the IP addresses
|
|
of known browse masters if your network config is that stable. If
|
|
a machine IP address is given Samba makes NO attempt to validate
|
|
that the remote machine is available, is listening, nor that it
|
|
is in fact the browse master on its segment.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The <smbconfoption name="remote browse sync"/> may be used on networks
|
|
where there is no WINS server, and may be used on disjoint networks where
|
|
each network has its own WINS server.
