Hi Jason, The "log file" parameter is just the name of the file. At the end you will have the same log, donīt matter what is the file name.
To log who logged in the Domain you can do ./configure --with-utmp in the compile time and add these lines to your smb.con: utmp = Yes utmp dir = /var/log And it will create the files: /var/log/utmpx -> this file with who is logged /var/log/wtmpx -> this file with who ever logged. I this very usefull. Hope it helps.
