+ <para>
+ The value of the parameter (a string) allows the debug level (logging level) to be specified in the
+ <filename moreinfo="none">smb.conf</filename> file.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>This parameter has been extended since the 2.2.x
+ series, now it allows one to specify the debug level for multiple
+ debug classes and distinct logfiles for debug classes. This is to give
+ greater flexibility in the configuration of the system. The following
+ debug classes are currently implemented:

+ been rolled back, and so have not actually persisted.</para>

+ <warning><para> Changes to <command
+ moreinfo="none">sam.ldb</command> made locally by the <command
+ moreinfo="none">root</command> user with direct access to the
+ database are not logged to the system logs, but to the

+ to make such modifications could disable the audit logging in any
