Hi,

I use 3.0.22 on my PDC and I found "Permission denied" errors in different 
logfiles. The funny thing is, that this error is exactly in that logfile:


# cat /var/log/samba/wks-01.log
[2007/09/10 09:51:29, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(597)
   Unable to open new log file /var/log/samba/wks-01.log: Permission denied


This are ther permissions on the logdirectory:
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 12288 Sep 10 09:32 /var/log/samba/


And here ther permission how samba create them by itself:
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 16183 Sep 10 09:51 /var/log/samba/operon.log


Any idea whats wrong there?


Regards
Marc
