Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The option "syslog" in smb.conf does not work. I have the lines
[global]
syslog = 2
syslog only = Yes
in my smb.conf, but smbd and nmbd does not send messages to syslog.
The problem is an wrong error handling. This is already fixed in
Samba 3.2.6. With the following patch, the output to syslog works
correctly.
