3 <listitem><para>This option enables a couple of enhancements to
4 cross-subnet browse propagation that have been added in Samba
5 but which are not standard in Microsoft implementations.
8 <para>The first enhancement to browse propagation consists of a regular
9 wildcard query to a Samba WINS server for all Domain Master Browsers,
10 followed by a browse synchronization with each of the returned
11 DMBs. The second enhancement consists of a regular randomised browse
12 synchronization with all currently known DMBs.</para>
14 <para>You may wish to disable this option if you have a problem with empty
15 workgroups not disappearing from browse lists. Due to the restrictions
16 of the browse protocols these enhancements can cause a empty workgroup
17 to stay around forever which can be annoying.</para>
19 <para>In general you should leave this option enabled as it makes
20 cross-subnet browse propagation much more reliable.</para>
22 <para>Default: <command moreinfo="none">enhanced browsing = yes</command></para>
