+
+	<para>
+		The <command>vfs_snapper</command> VFS module exposes snapshots
+		managed by snapper for use by Samba. This provides the ability
+		for remote SMB clients to access shadow-copies via Windows
+		Explorer using the "previous versions" dialog.
+	</para>
+
+	<para>
+		Snapshots can also be created and remove remotely, using the
+		File Server Remote VSS Protocol (FSRVP). Snapshot creation and
+		deletion requests are forwarded to snapper via DBus.
+	</para>
+
+	<para>
+		This module is stackable.

+	<title>CONFIGURATION</title>
+
+	<para>
+		The underlying share path must have a corresponding snapper
+		configuration file. The snapshot directory tree must allow
+		access for relevant users.

+		For remote snapshot creation and deletion, Samba's FSRVP
+		server must be configured in the [global] section:

+	<title>PERMISSIONS</title>
+	<para>
+		Snapper stores snapshots under a .snapshots subdirectory. This
+		directory must permit traversal for any users wishing to access
+		snapshots via the Windows Explorer previous versions dialog.
+		By default, traversal is forbidden for all non-root users.
+		Additionally, users must be granted permission to list snapshots
+		managed by snapper, via snapper's ALLOW_USERS or ALLOW_GROUPS
+		options. Snapper can grant these users and groups .snapshots
+		traversal access automatically via the SYNC_ACL option.
+	</para>
+	<para>
+		Remote snapshot creation and deletion is only permitted by Samba
+		for Active Directory administrators, backup operators, or users
+		explicitly granted SeBackupPrivilege. Snapper must also permit
+		creation and deletion for the appropriate user, via snapper's
+		ALLOW_USERS or ALLOW_GROUPS options.
+	</para>
+	<para>
+		The DiskShadow.exe FSRVP client initially authenticates as the
+		Active Directory computer account. This account must therefore
+		be granted the same permissions as the user account issuing the
+		snapshot creation and deletion requests.

+	<title>VERSION</title>
+
+	<para>
+		This man page is part of version &doc.version; of the Samba suite.

+	<title>AUTHOR</title>
+
+	<para>The original Samba software and related utilities
+	were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
+	by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
+	to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
