+<description>
+ <para>
+ This boolean parameter is only available if Samba has been configured and compiled
+ with the option <command moreinfo="none">--with-utmp</command>. If set to
+ <constant>yes</constant> then Samba will attempt to add utmp or utmpx records
+ (depending on the UNIX system) whenever a connection is made to a Samba server.
+ Sites may use this to record the user connecting to a Samba share.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Due to the requirements of the utmp record, we are required to create a unique
+ identifier for the incoming user. Enabling this option creates an n^2 algorithm
+ to find this number. This may impede performance on large installations.
