    I can't figure out a way to use the new logging parameter
    to recreate the old way of (from /etc/samba/smb.conf):

    syslog = 0
    log file = /var/samba/log/log.%m
    log level = 1 auth:10

    (This is from the Unix and Linux System Administration book,
    and I've used it for several years.)

    The host runs Solaris 10 patched to samba-4.4.17.

    I tried:
    logging = syslog@0 /var/samba/log/log.%m@"1 auth:10"

    It didn't work as expected.
    Things were ending up in syslog, while I wasn't getting
    per-host logs.

    The smb.conf manpage says (about logging):

    The parameter is
    a list of backends, where each backend is specified as
    backend[:option][@loglevel].

    Default: logging =
    Example: logging = syslog@1 file
