I saw that this was brought up before in the archives, but never answered. My question is how can I set samba to log only which IPs (or hostnames) transfer which files to and from the server so that I can run an analysis of its usage? I have tried using the built in logging feature, but it creates a massive amount of information, most of which is not useful for my purposes. Any help would be appreciated.

I am able to get extd_audit to load, but I cannot force it to stop logging to syslog and only to the smb logs, even with syslog = 0 and log level = 0 vfs:2 Any ideas? thanks -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces+cemeyer2=uiuc.edu@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-bounces+cemeyer2=uiuc.edu@lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of Victor Hiebert Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 2:06 PM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] logging of transferred files See the built in audit and extd_audit VFS modules. http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba3-HOWTO/VFS.html> I saw that this was brought up before in the archives, but never answered.> My question is how can I set samba to log only which IPs (or hostnames) > transfer which files to and from the server so that I can run an analysisof> its usage?> I have tried using the built in logging feature, but it creates a massive > amount of information, most of which is not useful for my purposes.> Any help would be appreciated.> Charlie Meyer> Computer Science> University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign> cemeyer2@uiuc.edu-- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Had the same issue, it may not be possible to get samba to not use syslog. We got what we wanted regardless by adding: *.*;smbd_audit.none /var/log/all.log !smbd_audit *.* /var/log/samba/audit.log to syslog.conf> I am able to get extd_audit to load, but I cannot force it to stop logging > to syslog and only to the smb logs, even with syslog = 0 and log level = 0 > vfs:2> Any ideas?> thanks> -----Original Message----- > From: samba-bounces+cemeyer2=uiuc.edu@lists.samba.org > [mailto:samba-bounces+cemeyer2=uiuc.edu@lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of Victor > Hiebert > Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 2:06 PM > To: samba@lists.samba.org > Subject: Re: [Samba] logging of transferred files> See the built in audit and extd_audit VFS modules. > http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba3-HOWTO/VFS.html>> I saw that this was brought up before in the archives, but never answered.>> My question is how can I set samba to log only which IPs (or hostnames) >> transfer which files to and from the server so that I can run an analysis > of >> its usage?>> I have tried using the built in logging feature, but it creates a massive >> amount of information, most of which is not useful for my purposes.>> Any help would be appreciated.>> Charlie Meyer>> Computer Science>> University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign>> cemeyer2@uiuc.edu> -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
