+<description>
+ <para>This option controls whether DCERPC services are allowed to
+ be used with DCERPC_AUTH_LEVEL_CONNECT, which provides authentication,
+ but no per message integrity nor privacy protection.</para>
+
+ <para>Some interfaces like samr, lsarpc and netlogon have a hard-coded default of
+ <constant>no</constant> and epmapper, mgmt and rpcecho have a hard-coded default of
+ <constant>yes</constant>.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>The behavior can be overwritten per interface name (e.g. lsarpc, netlogon, samr, srvsvc,
+ winreg, wkssvc ...) by using 'allow dcerpc auth level connect:interface = yes' as option.</para>
+
+ <para>This option yields precedence to the implementation specific restrictions.
+ E.g. the drsuapi and backupkey protocols require DCERPC_AUTH_LEVEL_PRIVACY.
+ The dnsserver protocol requires DCERPC_AUTH_LEVEL_INTEGRITY.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>Note the default will very likely change to <constant>no</constant> for Samba 4.5.</para>
