the status of "remote browse sync"

[TAKAHASHI Motonobu]

As far as I examined, "remote browse sync" parameter does not work as
described in smb.conf(5).

In addition to the description in smb.conf(5), 

1) both Samba box must be a **domain** master browse because they
  need to receive a Master Announcement.

2) both Samba box must be a WINS server because the workgroup name
 included in received Master Announcement packet must exists in
 UNICAST_SUBNET.

The following smb.conf is a minimum one to work remote browse sync
parameter.

-----
[global]
  workgroup = SAMBA01 (should be same atboth Samba box)
  domain master = Yes
  wins support = Yes
  remote browse sync = x.x.x.x (shoube be the other Samba box's IP)
  enhanced browsing = No (or Yes)
-----

At least this behavior differs from that in smb.conf(5). 
This behavior is by design or a bug? 

Umm, this parameter is really used ?
