That puts the client IP address and the protocol version they’re using
into the log file name. I have found this useful for spotting patterns in
which clients are having trouble.

    Noted.
 

There are of course other fields you can include in the name.

    The typical problem with logs is TOO MANY fields.
   Can't sort the wheat from the chaff.
    SAMBA isn't anything NEW - it SHOULDN'T be this
   difficult. High success a few years ago, now crap.
   SOMETHING changed but I can't pin it down yet.
   PROBABLY some "security enhancement", poorly
   documented. It ought to Just Work.
