	<para>
		This controls the backend for storing the configuration.
		Possible values are <emphasis>file</emphasis> (the default)
		and <emphasis>registry</emphasis>.
		When <smbconfoption name="config backend">registry</smbconfoption>
		 is encountered while loading <emphasis>smb.conf</emphasis>,
		the configuration read so far is dropped and the global
		options are read from registry instead. So this triggers a
		registry only configuration. Share definitions are not read
		immediately but instead <parameter>registry
		shares</parameter> is set to <emphasis>yes</emphasis>.
	</para>
	<para>
		Note: This option can not be set inside the registry
		configuration itself.
