Hi list, Issue regarding the samba log files. In the samba configuration file Global settings i have the parameter to get log files of particular samba shares in the share_name.log format. For that i have given the parameter as log file = /var/log/%S.log According to the docs the log files will be generated for particular shares in the /var/log and for %S the sharename has to come. But for us its showing as %S.log itself. We have tried with %m and %U which is replaced with the machine netbios name and the samba username respectively. Can anybody tell me why its not working with %S? Or i have to do something more to get it work? I am attaching Global Settings part of the samba configuration file here, [global] server string=sanat server netbios name=sanat wins server=192.168.0.1 log level=2 security=user encrypt passwords=yes socket options=TCP_NODELAY read raw=yes write raw=yes oplocks=no level2 oplocks=no template shell=/bin/false unix extensions=no directory mask=0770 create mask=0770 veto files=/aquota.group/aquota.user/lost+found/.owner*/quota.user/quota.group/ root preexec=/usr/local/samba/bin/smb-preexec '%S' '%I' '%U' '%a' '%T' root preexec close=Yes root postexec=/usr/local/samba/bin/smb-postexec '%S' '%I' '%U' '%a' '%T' log file = /var/log/%S.log Thanks in advance. -- regards, Rahul
