I don't see anything coming up in any of the logs I am looking at... I
have the syslog flag on, so things get written there, and I am checking
the log.smbd and log.nmbd files.  Is there somewhere else I should look?

Sorry if this is a newbie question, but I haven't been able to find
anything on it.
