Logging failed, and we were mystified

[Richard Sharpe]

Hi,

in trying to track down the problems I mentioned yesterday between samba
1.9.16p11 and 1.9.18p10, we tried to set up Samba on a separate machine.
Because the directories where we wanted the logs to go were NFS mounted,
Samba did not write a log file.

However, it went happily on working!

Perhaps it should have aborted if the log file could not be written.

Comments?

Regards
