Olivier,

I'm not opposed to this patch but as a matter of style I would
rather not wrap the syslog statements in an if() statement
every time.  Take a look at sys_adminlog() in
http://viewcvs.samba.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/branches/SAMBA_2_2/source/lib/system.c?rev=518&view=markup

Also, I'm not sure why you would not want to write to syslog.
That's the whole purpose of the module.  Your changes disable
a lot of the logging altogether.  Why not just specify a local
user and send that to a separate file (as you mention in BUG 2349).

Like I said, I'm not opposed, but I need to be sold on the
benefits of the patch a little bit more.  Right now, it seems
like adding an additional parameter to the configuration with
very little payback.



cheers, jerry
