	<para>Samba 2.2.0 introduced the ability to dynamically 
	add and delete shares via the Windows NT 4.0 Server Manager.  The 
	<parameter moreinfo="none">delete share command</parameter> is used to define an 
	external program or script which will remove an existing service 
	definition from <filename moreinfo="none">smb.conf</filename>.  In order to successfully 
	execute the <parameter moreinfo="none">delete share command</parameter>, <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command>
	requires that the administrator be connected using a root account (i.e. 
	uid == 0).
	</para>

	When executed, <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command> will automatically invoke the 
	<parameter moreinfo="none">delete share command</parameter> with two parameters.
