Hmm..., I'll try it once more because I can't beleive that nobody can
give me a hint...

Hi,
in the syslog file I repeatedly find the following messages:
Jun 8 08:19:40 wrpc3 smbd[8296]: [2001/06/08 08:19:40, 0]
lib/debug.c:check_log_size(311)
Jun 8 08:19:40 wrpc3 smbd[8296]: check_log_size: open of debug file
/var/log/smb failed - using console.
The file /var/log/smb has the following attributes:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1024067 Jun 6 12:14 smb
(Thus being writable for smbd!?)
The concerning entry in smb.conf is:
max log size = 1000
(obviously just exceeded)
I run Debian Potato with
ii samba 2.0.7-3.3 A LanManager like file and printer server fo
ii samba-common 2.0.7-3.3 Samba common files used by both the server a
ii samba-doc 2.0.7-3.3 Samba documentation.
ii swat 2.0.7-3.3 Samba Web Administration Tool
Samba runs as a daemon, not via inetd -- could there be a coherence?
Waiting for a hint...
Thanks in advance,

- can someone explain me the mechanism how smbd/nmbd rename their
files?
- How else can I interpret the error message? (The permits of the file
seem to be OK)
- What if I run smnd/nmbd via inetd? Are the files ever renamed then?
- Could there be a bug that smbd keeps the file open and thus cannot
"re"open it? And how to ship around then?
That's all very strange...
Thanks in advance,
