Hi all, We have samba (v1.9.16p10) configured to use 5 interfaces. Although this is no problem, and everything is working correctly, our log files are becoming full of the Added interface ip=a.b.c.d bcast=a.b.c.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 ..type of lines (in groups of five - one for each interface). Actually, the log file for our main server contains over 900000 lines, of which only 4000 or so are *not* the above line. This obviously makes it a bit more tricky to check the log file (other than using grep -v, of course) So, my questions are as follows: (1) Why does it write these lines to the log file (i.e. how often does it happen and what triggers it off)? (2) Does this signify some kind of problem that has gone unnoticed? (3) Do I want to stop it doing this and, if so, how? (4) On a more general note, is there any documentation around that will give more detailed information on the samba log files? Thanks Toby Blake HCRC/CogSci University of Edinburgh
