[Samba] Re: Logging to MySQL

[Quim Rovira]

I've released a new version of the samba-logger script so it can
support multiple matching criteria as well as logging to different
mysql tables. Now it does all we need in our particular case, but any
feedback or suggestions are welcome.
You can find it at http://www.rovira.cat/gpl/samba-logger.tar.gz
