Using Logfiles of Samba for MPE/iX
In case of problems, check for the job listings for useful error messages and also look into the Samba for
MPE/iX log file /usr/local/samba/var/log.smb and log.nmb for hints. You can control the amount of log
messages with the debug level directive inside the config file smb.conf.
Increasing the log level to 3 or 4 can shed light on the cause of most problems. This also may lead to a large
amount of details to be logged into these files.
You may have to increase the size of your log file if your debug level is more than 3.
NOTE Before using the logging feature of Samba for MPE/iX, make sure you check the IT Resource
Center (ITRC) for information on any possible Samba for MPE/iX problems, URL:
