Package: samba Version: 3.0.26a This is a bit pedantic, but when I was studying the smb.conf file, this seemed odd, so I went to verify it. It seems like an easy fix to clarify this to save others the trouble:
The comment for max log size says "Kb". It should say "KiB" or at least "KB", as it's in bytes, not bits. I'm attaching a patch which shows the change. It would probably make sense to change the value from 1000 to 1024, which would make it an even 1 MiB. It seems odd to have a power of ten value for a field that's in a power of two units. Also, I found the "Put a capping" wording awkward, so this patch changes that as well. Richard
