not specified is 0.</p><p>The higher this value, the more detail will be

logged to the log files about the activities of the

warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for

day-to-day running - it generates a small amount of

information about operations carried out.</p><p>Levels above 1 will generate considerable

amounts of log data, and should only be used when

investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are designed for

use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log

data, most of which is extremely cryptic.</p><p>Note that specifying this parameter here will

Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to DocBook XML 4.2

for Samba 3.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy.</p></div></div></body></html>
