+ <para> controls the algorithm used for the generating
+ the mangled names. Can take two different values, &quot;hash&quot; and
+ &quot;hash2&quot;. &quot;hash&quot; is the algorithm that was
+ used in Samba for many years and was the default in Samba 2.2.x &quot;hash2&quot; is
+ now the default and is newer and considered a better algorithm (generates less collisions) in
+ the names. Many Win32 applications store the mangled names and so
+ changing to algorithms must not be done lightly as these applications
+ may break unless reinstalled.</para>
