+<description>
+ <para>This option controls the maximum depth that winbindd
+ will traverse when flattening nested group memberships
+ of Windows domain groups. This is different from the
+ <smbconfoption name="winbind nested groups"/> option
+ which implements the Windows NT4 model of local group
+ nesting. The &quot;winbind expand groups&quot;
+ parameter specifically applies to the membership of
+ domain groups.</para>
+
+ <para>Be aware that a high value for this parameter can
+ result in system slowdown as the main parent winbindd daemon
+ must perform the group unrolling and will be unable to answer
+ incoming NSS or authentication requests during this time.</para>
