samba logs


I am using webmin to manage my samba server. When I originally set it up, I didn't pay any attention to logging. A few months after I set it up, I have a samba log folder filled up with over 10Meg of logs. I can of course stop logging all together, but I would like to know what these logs mean. Here is a small snipet of what the .log file looks like:
Code:
[root@Secretariat samba]# more 12.215.96.12.log

Appear to just be general type connection logs for Samba. Setup logrotate though, it will prevent your logs from getting huge.
