I don't think that saying RTFM is the best approach... but anyway...

I already readed the manual and found the information given there somewhat confusing at least for people who hasn't been working with samba for a long time. I edited my smb.conf file and added the following lines :

[records]
        vfs objects = full_audit
        path = /shared/records
        full_audit:prefix = %u|%I|%T|%M|%m
full_audit:success = open opendir read readdir rmdir sendfile write chmod chmod_acl chown connect disconnect mkdir
        full_audit:failure = all

I restarted the smb service but there are no log files to be found at the path I gave, am I missing something ? Also I don't know in the following line "full_audit:facility = LOCAL7" what LOCAL7 stands for. I tryed opening various files on the shares from another computer and nothing happened


Thanks,


A.

Already did that,

What I don't get is where do I enable the module, is it in smb.conf ? I suppose it will run with the smbd daemon, and that I can define wich share will be logged... but I really don't know where to configure this.


Thanks,


A.

Can you be more explicit about this module ? I searched the net but
found only confusing things about it. Can it log every file, folder
read/write access on the share ? This is mostly for security purposes. I found that this is a samba module, but how do I use it, set it up, etc.

Yes, it can log every file operation that Samba ever does.

"man vfs_full_audit"

contains an example of its use.

Yes. Its on smb.conf and part of samba already. You dont need to enable anything.

Use smb.conf directive  "vfs objects = ".

     [records]
                path = /data/records
                vfs objects = full_audit
                full_audit:prefix = %u|%I
                full_audit:success = open opendir
                full_audit:failure = all
                full_audit:facility = LOCAL7
                full_audit:priority = ALERT

If you have any questions, please RTFM again.
