Thanks but no thanks. I've got literally hundreds of users. As I write this message
there are 424 unique users using my samba server. I don't want hundreds and hundreds
of little log files. I want one BIG log file.
It should be no-brainer, in the [global] section of smb.conf I have:
log level = 1
max log size = 0
But, no matter what I set max log size to, be it 0 or a big number, it is always
ignored and the log.smbd is always ended at 5 Meg.
I doubt I'm going to get any support, you'll all write and say it works fine for me
or you must be doing something wrong but oh well. In fact, when I did a little
digging into it a while back running samba on my workstation which is also
Sparc/Solaris the parameter did in fact seem to work ok. But that was with a basic
smb.conf and a load of 1 user (me) testing from my Windows 2000 box.
It just doesn't work on my server. :(
I guess, all I'm asking is that if anybody else has seen this problem, please speak up.
Thankyou,
Tom Schaefer
You might try setting in your smb.conf [globals]:
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 100
log level = 1
Should keep the log file 100 Kb per client.
This works for me.
