another question is: how can i tell samba to keep more versions of the log
files? Now it only keeps a client.log and a client.log.old.
One tack may be to write a script to rename any old files to a
datestamped file.
If you do this, you end up with
smbd-smith_2007-01-16.log.gz
smbd-smith_2007-01-17.log.gz
Run the script at 11:58 and do the datestring at the start.
Each file will contain the activity of that day.
Alternately, use newsyslog. Part of the release with freebsd. Probably
available for other systems.
# logfilename [owner:group] mode count size when [ZJB]
[/pid_file] [
sig_num]
//var/log/daemon 644 365 * $D0 Z
/var/log/maillog 644 365 * $D0 Z
/var/log/dns 644 365 * $D0 Z
I've not done this with samba log files, as I've not found them useful
for anything but debugging current problems.
If you want dailies, then in smb.conf, set the file size for the logs to
be larger than you would get in a day, or set it to be 0 (unlimited)
The format above names them files name.1 name.2 name.3... and gzips them.
If you prefer a slightly different approach:
