er, if you are confused what log level to pick, someone who helped to 
write Samba, what hope do I have as just a mere user ;-)
Also saying that you do get a lot of stuff is a slight understatement.

No argument, using the standard log level gives you nothing from the 
internal DNS server, whilst bind is pretty vocal.

Yes, but I am still confused as to what happened during the upgrades
