-\fB-d|--debug=debuglevel\fR
-\fIdebuglevel\fR is an integer
-from 0 to 10. The default value if this parameter is
-not specified is zero.
-
-The higher this value, the more detail will be
-logged to the log files about the activities of the
-server. At level 0, only critical errors and serious
-warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for
-day to day running - it generates a small amount of
-information about operations carried out.
-
-Levels above 1 will generate considerable
-amounts of log data, and should only be used when
-investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are designed for
-use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log
-data, most of which is extremely cryptic.

-Note that specifying this parameter here will
-override the log

-\fB-R <name resolve order>\fR
-This option is used to determine what naming
-services and in what order to resolve
-host names to IP addresses. The option takes a space-separated
-string of different name resolution options.
-
-The options are: "lmhosts", "host", "wins" and "bcast".
-They cause names to be resolved as follows :
-.RS
-.TP 0.2i
-\(bu
-lmhosts:
-Lookup an IP address in the Samba lmhosts file. If the
-line in lmhosts has no name type attached to the
-NetBIOS name
-(see the \fBlmhosts\fR(5) for details)
-then any name type matches for lookup.
-.TP 0.2i
-\(bu
-host:
-Do a standard host name to IP address resolution, using
-the system \fI/etc/hosts\fR, NIS, or DNS
-lookups. This method of name resolution is operating
-system dependent, for instance on IRIX or Solaris this
-may be controlled by the \fI/etc/nsswitch.conf\fR file). Note that this method is only used
-if the NetBIOS name type being queried is the 0x20
-(server) name type, otherwise it is ignored.
-.TP 0.2i
-\(bu
-wins:
-Query a name with the IP address listed in the
-\fIwins server\fR parameter. If no
-WINS server has been specified this method will be
-ignored.
-.TP 0.2i
-\(bu
-bcast:
-Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces
-listed in the \fIinterfaces\fR
-parameter. This is the least reliable of the name
-resolution methods as it depends on the target host
-being on a locally connected subnet.
-.RE
-
-If this parameter is not set then the name resolve order
-defined in the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) file parameter
-(\fIname resolve order\fR) will be used.
-
-The default order is lmhosts, host, wins, bcast. Without
-this parameter or any entry in the \fIname resolve order\fR parameter of the \fBsmb.conf\fR(5) file, the name resolution methods
-will be attempted in this order.
