        If a Samba server is a member of a Windows NT Domain (see the <smbconfoption
 
10
        name="security">domain</smbconfoption> parameter) then periodically a running smbd process will try and change
 
11
        the MACHINE ACCOUNT PASSWORD stored in the TDB called <filename moreinfo="none">private/secrets.tdb
 
12
        </filename>.  This parameter specifies how often this password will be changed, in seconds. The default is one
 
13
        week (expressed in seconds), the same as a Windows NT Domain member server.
