Child 827 exited with status 0" (out of systemctl status samba-ad-dc) that
doesn?t show what child/deamon exited.
thanks.

I think here we can include the service name, and avoid logging
at level 0 when the return status is 0.

Any more?

Hi Doug, all,
thanks for picking that one up. As you mentioned log level, the
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_the_Samba_Log_Level does not specify
what log level is the default, and also mentions log level and debug level,
without telling these are the same (as
https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/current/man-html/smb.conf.5.html#LOGGING
suggests).
I am willing to update the page, adding the default level and a link to the
details page.
Any opinions on this?
Thanks,
Joachim
