7 <para> controls the algorithm used for the generating
8 the mangled names. Can take two different values, "hash" and
9 "hash2". "hash" is the default and is the algorithm that has been
10 used in Samba for many years. "hash2" is a newer and considered
11 a better algorithm (generates less collisions) in the names.
12 However, many Win32 applications store the mangled names and so
13 changing to the new algorithm must not be done
14 lightly as these applications may break unless reinstalled.</para>
