We're using the Sernet Samba v4.2.4 with internal DNS and I can't find the DNS logs. Where does the Samba 4 internal DNS log queries? Thanks. regards, John
Nobody? Surely somebody knows where Samba 4 logs its DNS queries, or was this was a huge oversight and the internal DNS doesn't get logged at all, as appears to be suggested by my utter failure to locate such logs.

no DNS server on that planet logs normal queries just because there si not enough disk space in most setups, there is not benefit log anything except erros and warnings for normal operations what is the problem you like to solve and if there is no problem why do you want logging normal operations? in other words: what do you try to solve except https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/DNS Am 04.11.2015 um 22:13 schrieb John Gardeniers:> Nobody?

Patches are welcome. :-) Regards, Marc

Depending on how you configured your server. You may find them in '/usr/local/samba/var/log.samba' This along with Wireshark has been enough to debug. I found out why secure dynamic updates no longer work with this method. -- -James
