+	<para>
+	This boolean option controls whether an incoming session setup
+	should kill other connections coming from the same IP. This matches
+        the default Windows 2003 behaviour.
+
+	Setting this parameter to yes becomes necessary when you have a flaky
+	network and windows decides to reconnect while the old connection
+	still has files with share modes open. These files become inaccessible
+	over the new connection.
+
+	The client sends a zero VC on the new connection, and Windows 2003
+	kills all other connections coming from the same IP. This way the
+	locked files are accessible again.
+
+	Please be aware that enabling this option will kill connections behind
+	a masquerading router.
