Check your /etc/samba/smb.conf to ensure that it does *not* contain a line that says syslog only = yes just a shot in the dark... Also, here's a snippet from /etc/cron.weekly/samba which may or may not have some relevance to your situation: # /var/log/samba/log.nmbd and /var/log/samba/log.smbd will grow until # they # have reached they size especified in /etc/samba/smb.conf, "max log # size" # parameter. The sample smb.conf that gets installed with # samba-common sets # this parameter to 1 MByte. After the log files have reached this # size, nmbd # or smbd rename their log file to nmb.old and smb.old, and create # new # log file with the names nmb and smb. Here we rotate the .old # files, # not the nmb or smb files because Samba keeps them open!!! You have # been # warned!
