-The '-p' option was just to show unique PIDs.
+Run this script from cron eg.
 
-The more important ones are the '-c' and '-l' options '-c' just counts
-the number of unique smbd's, While '-l' logs this count with date and
-time to a log file specified on the command line.  I'm using '-l' at
-the moment with cron to give me an idea of usage/max connections etc.
-I was also thinking of doing a log for individual/specified services.
+0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,50,55 * * * * /usr/local/samba/bin/smbstat -l /usr/local/samba/var/smbdcount.log
 
-The default (last) option was to show unique PIDs with user names.
-Unfortunately this still lists all file locks etc.  This would be
-better with a 'no locked files' option from smbstatus (or is there one
-that I didn't see)
+and you get a good idea of usage over time.
