samba - Oct 2004 - 2 log files for the same client workstation accessing a Samba sha re

Hi,

I am using Samba 3.0.7.

Why is there a log filename with the IP address and another one with the
machine name in the samba/var directory?

For example :

	log.10.x.x.x.
	log.machine_name_at_10.x.x.x

Note: I deleted all logs before restarting Samba and connecting to a share.
Both log files are created at about the same time.

Is this a normal Samba behavior?

Regards,

Marcello

Yes (when the client connects to port 445 we don't
have access to the machine name until the SMBsesssetup&X
request).
