Oh, how silly of me. The 8841 process that shows in that fuser list is a tail -f I had open in another terminal.
That being said, there were still other processes, samba ones, which held an open fd to the log file, so this bug is still valid. I should just be more careful with my tail -f next time :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810736 Title: logrotate script needs to notify all samba processes when logs are rotated To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/810736/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
