                <term><anchor id="WIDELINKS"/>wide links (S)</term>
                <listitem><para>This parameter controls whether or not links 
                in the UNIX file system may be followed by the server. Links 
                that point to areas within the directory tree exported by the 
                server are always allowed; this parameter controls access only 
                to areas that are outside the directory tree being exported.</para>

                <para>Note that setting this parameter can have a negative 
                effect on your server performance due to the extra system calls 
                that Samba has to  do in order to perform the link checks.</para>

                <para>Default: <command moreinfo="none">wide links = yes</command></para>
