[Samba] Samba 2.2.3a won't log

Hi Michael,
I believe that the issue is that the smbd file DOES exist.
Problem is that the -l option is not expecting a FILE name, but a DIRECTORY
name, where it will CREATE files like log.smbd, etc.  
Hope this helps
Don

Hi,
I am running Samba 2.2.3a this way:

/usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -D -l /var/log/samba/smbd -d 1

There is nothing in /var/log/samba/smbd.  The file does exist; it
is owned by root.  The directory /var/log/samba exists and it is owned by 
root.  smbd starts in /etc/rc2.d; root is the one who starts it.

What could possibly cause smbd to not log?  I don't see any errors anywhere 
like in /var/log/messages .  Thanks.
