-    <para>This parameter determines whether or not
-    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbclient</refentrytitle>
-    <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> and other samba components
-    acting as a client will attempt to use the server-supplied
-    principal sometimes given in the SPNEGO exchange.</para>
-
-    <para>If enabled, Samba can attempt to use Kerberos to contact
-    servers known only by IP address.  Kerberos relies on names, so
-    ordinarily cannot function in this situation. </para>
-
-    <para>This is a VERY BAD IDEA for security reasons, and so this
-    parameter SHOULD NOT BE USED. It will be removed in a future
-    version of Samba.</para>
-
-    <para>If disabled, Samba will use the name used to look up the
-    server when asking the KDC for a ticket.  This avoids situations
-    where a server may impersonate another, soliciting authentication
-    as one principal while being known on the network as another.
-    </para>
-
-    <para>Note that Windows XP SP2 and later versions already follow
-    this behaviour, and Windows Vista and later servers no longer
-    supply this 'rfc4178 hint' principal on the server side.</para>
-
-    <para>This parameter is deprecated in Samba 4.2.1 and will be removed
-    (along with the functionality) in a later release of Samba.</para>
