Done on OpenVMS. Traceback listings are available. Core dumps just
require setting an option.
It would probably work even better if I stopped SAMBA from trapping
fatal errors to it's core dump routine and let the OS default handler
take care of it.
If I install an image with privilege though (setuid / setgid bits) I
have to disable the traceback listing feature.

Can you redirect stderr into the logfile instead of closing it?
