<para>

This option allows you to setup <citerefentry><refentrytitle>nmbd</refentrytitle>
|
|
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> to periodically announce itself
|
|
to arbitrary IP addresses with an arbitrary workgroup name.
|
|
</para>

|
|
<para>
|
|
This is useful if you want your Samba server 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>
|
|
<command moreinfo="none">remote announce = 192.168.2.255/SERVERS 192.168.4.255/STAFF</command>
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
the above line would cause <command moreinfo="none">nmbd</command> to announce itself
|
|
to the two given IP addresses using the given workgroup names. If you leave out the
|
|
workgroup name, then the one given in the <smbconfoption name="workgroup"/> parameter
|
|
is used instead.
|
|
</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.
|
|
</para>
