The same behavior is available through the "logging" parameter, which is
a bit more flexible with regards of sending log messages to different
targets. See "man smb.conf":
syslog (G)
[...]
The logging parameter should be used instead. When logging is
set, it overrides the syslog parameter.
and
logging (G)
This parameter configures logging backends. Multiple backends
can be specified at the same time, with different log levels
for each backend. The parameter is a list of backends, where each
backend is specified as backend[:option][@loglevel].
[...]
Example: logging = syslog at 1 file
So just set "logging" instead of "syslog".
