This parameter controls whether SMB share modes are
- translated into UNIX flocks.
+ translated into file system specific sharemode calls.
</para>
<para>
Kernel share modes provide a minimal level of interoperability
with local UNIX processes and NFS operations by preventing
- access with flocks corresponding to the SMB share modes.
- Generally, it is very desirable to leave this enabled.
+ access corresponding to the SMB share modes. This requires

- This parameter defaults to <constant>yes</constant> and
- is translated to a no-op on systems that do not have the
- necessary kernel flock support.
+ This parameter defaults to <constant>no</constant>. Setting
+ it to <constant>yes</constant> requires a file system module
