If you happen to be debugging a network problem and you find that the date-stamp and timestamp information within the Samba log lines gets in the way, you can turn it off by giving either the
timestamp
logs
or the
debug
timestamp
option (they're synonymous) a value of
no
. For example, a regular Samba log file presents its output in the following form:
12/31/98 12:03:34 hydra (192.168.220.101) connect to server network as user davecb
With a
no
value for this option, the output would appear without the datestamp or the timestamp:
hydra (192.168.220.101) connect to server network as user davecb
