keepalive
keepalive (G) The value of the parameter (an integer) represents the number of             seconds between _�k_�e_�e_�p_�a_�l_�i_�v_�e packets. If this parameter is zero, no             keepalive  packets  will  be  sent. Keepalive packets, if sent, allow the server to tell whether a client is still present  and responding.

Keepalives should, in general, not be needed if the socket being used has the SO_KEEPALIVE  attribute  set  on  it  (see  _�s_�o_�c_�k_�e_�t              _�o_�p_�t_�i_�o_�n_�s). Basically you  should  only  use  this option if you strike difficulties.

Default: _�k_�e_�e_�p_�a_�l_�i_�v_�e = 300

Example: _�k_�e_�e_�p_�a_�l_�i_�v_�e = 600

kernel change notify
kernel change notify (G) This parameter specifies whether Samba should ask the kernel for change notifications  in  directories  so  that SMB clients can refresh whenever the data on the server changes.

This parameter is only used when your  kernel  supports  change notification to user programs, using the F_NOTIFY fcntl.

Default: _�k_�e_�r_�n_�e_�l _�c_�h_�a_�n_�g_�e _�n_�o_�t_�i_�f_�y = yes

kernel oplocks
kernel oplocks (G) For UNIXes  that  support  kernel based _�o_�p_�l_�o_�c_�k_�s (currently only              IRIX and the Linux 2.4 kernel), this parameter allows the use of              them to be turned on or off.

Kernel oplocks support allows Samba _�o_�p_�l_�o_�c_�k_�s  to be broken when- ever a local UNIX process or NFS operation accesses a file that s�sm�mb�bd�d(8) has  oplocked. This allows  complete data consistency between SMB/CIFS, NFS and local file access (and is a v�ve�er�ry�y cool              feature :-).

This parameter  defaults to o�on�n, but is translated to a no-op on              systems that no not  have  the  necessary  kernel  support. You should never need to touch this parameter.

Default: _�k_�e_�r_�n_�e_�l _�o_�p_�l_�o_�c_�k_�s = yes
