the samba-log should really not be that cluttered source-file, code-line are not relevant for such basic entries this way i would expect a log-line which would be one instead two [2013/08/04 11:31:55] client-host (ipv4:xx.xx.0.200:58176) closed connection to service sharename _______________________________ [2013/08/04 11:31:41.610444, 1] ../source3/smbd/service.c:847(make_connection_snum) client-host (ipv4:xx.xx.0.200:58176) connect to service sharename initially as user username (uid=1030, gid=2000) (pid 447) [2013/08/04 11:31:55.139337, 1] ../source3/smbd/service.c:1121(close_cnum) client-host (ipv4:xx.xx.0.200:58176) closed connection to service sharename [2013/08/04 13:03:18.541948, 1] ../source3/smbd/service.c:847(make_connection_snum) client-host (ipv4:xx.xx.0.200:58176) connect to service sharename initially as user username (uid=1030, gid=2000) (pid 447)
Harald, thanks for reporting a bug. The information might not be relevant for you but it is extremely important to Samba developers!
but it should *not* be logged all the time without having any debug-option set - imageine if all services would log this way how cluttered the whole syslog would look like!
