Description Gavrie Philipson 2004-09-13 03:50:59 UTC 
When trying to change the directory that log files should be written to, using
the "-l" option to nmbd and winbindd, the daemon disregards the option and still
logs to the compiled-in default directory.
This is due to a bug that overrides the option with the default after first
setting the option.

Patch to nmbd and winbindd to fix the bug.

The attached patch fixes the problem, since POPT_COMMON_SAMBA already takes
care of setting the default for this option.
