+$options->setTimeout(5);
+$serverFactory = new ServerFactory($options);

+### Customizing system integration
+
+The `smbclient` backend needs to get various information about the system it's running on to function
+such as the paths of various binaries or the system timezone.
+While the default logic for getting this information should work on most systems, it possible to customize this behaviour.
+
+In order to customize the integration you provide a custom implementation of `ITimezoneProvider` and/or `ISystem` and pass them as arguments to the `ServerFactory`.
