I have configured and compiled samba 2.2.8 with gcc 2.95.3 on Solaris 9
using the options --with-automount.

When I try to use the command:

	smbd -D -l /var/log/log.smbd

The log file is not created.  Neither is the default log file which is in
/usr/local/samba/var/.


# /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -D -l /var/log/log.smbd
# ls -ald /var/log/log.smbd
/var/log/log.smbd: No such file or directory


The "log file" option in smb.conf works fine, but does not give you the
granularity to have different log files for nmbd and smbd.
