><P
>The <TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>close-share</TT
> message-type sends a
message to smbd which will then close the client connections to
the named share. Note that this doesn't affect client connections
to any other shares. This message-type takes an argument of the
share name for which client connections will be closed, or the
"*" character which will close all currently open shares.
This may be useful if you made changes to the access controls on the share.
This message can only be sent to <TT

the debug level to be set to the value specified by the

CLASS="CONSTANT"
>force-election</TT
> message-type can only be
sent to the <TT

causes the <B

>nmbd</B
> daemon to force a new browse
master election.</P
><P
>The <TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>ping</TT
> message-type sends the
number of "ping" messages specified by the parameter and waits
for the same number of reply "pong" messages. This can be sent to
any of the destinations.</P
><P
>The <TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>profile</TT
> message-type sends a
message to an smbd to change the profile settings based on the
parameter. The parameter can be "on" to turn on profile stats
collection, "off" to turn off profile stats collection, "count"
to enable only collection of count stats (time stats are
disabled), and "flush" to zero the current profile stats. This can
be sent to any smbd or nmbd destinations.</P
><P
>The <TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>debuglevel</TT
> message-type sends
a "request debug level" message. The current debug level setting
is returned by a "debuglevel" message. This can be
sent to any of the destinations.</P
><P
>The <TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>profilelevel</TT
> message-type sends
a "request profile level" message. The current profile level
setting is returned by a "profilelevel" message. This can be sent
to any smbd or nmbd destinations.</P
><P
>The <TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>printer-notify</TT
> message-type sends a
message to smbd which in turn sends a printer notify message to
any Windows NT clients connected to a printer. This message-type
takes an argument of the printer name to send notify messages to.
This message can only be sent to <TT
