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.
