The "Using Samba" documents are also provided by the samba-doc package,
which package description states that it contains "all the documentation
that comes in the original tarball". I find it strange that the
documentation in the original tarball is incorrect, but what I find the
strangest is this:
Is there really no way to make samba log stuff to %S.log, %S being the
name of the share? It really can't be far away from making a separate
log for each user, which it is already capable of doing, and has been
for a long time.

as described in Chapter 12 of the Using Samba guide to log for each service

Note that "Using Samba" is not the official documentation for Samba. It is a
book published in 2003 (which would be before or around 3.0) and describes
the situation at that time. The book is provided for entertainment value,
and we're not going to start being part-time editors for it.
should be considered a serious bug, but I have filed it as important
because it doesnt affect usability for all users. However the bug makes the
documentation invalid and for this reason it is every bit serious.
Well, if ever piece of incorrect documentation were a serious bug, we'd make
empty releases.
