2.0.x (before 2.0.5) PROBLEM: samba didn't reopen then logs after HUP.
I posted about this to samba-bugs; AT corrected the problem in 2.0.5-preXX,
but not completely it seems.
2.0.5 PROBLEM: samba reopens the logs after a HUP but logs only the first
connection to the new log, then it keeps logging to the old one.
Here is what I see:
# pwd
/var/log/samba
# smbclient|grep Version
Version 2.0.5
# pidof smbd
# ls -l
total 0
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start
Starting samba: smbd nmbd.
# ls -l

The first "smbclient...." opens a new log.smb log, the 2nd logs to the
old
log.smb.1.
