Hai Dan,
Is this still happening with the current 4.2.10 version? If this occurs, it often happens when the log.nmbd already exists and samba cant write to it. When the log rotated now happens, samba keeps writing in the .1 file. Can you check with the latest (stable) version. And if needed to be sure, clear the /var/log/samba folder and restart samba again. This make sure all files have the correct rights. Best regards, Louis
