Description Rodney Beede 2013-08-01 20:17:47 UTC 
The smb.conf man page fails to mention that this option is deprecated even though the "testparm" tool reports this warning.

If the option is not deprecated then testparm should be fixed.

If it is then the smb.conf man page should mention that.

I believe this also carries over into Samba 4.
