<para>This tool is part of the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
<para><command>log2pcap</command> reads in a
samba log file and generates a pcap file (readable
by most sniffers, such as ethereal or tcpdump) based on the packet
dumps in the log file.</para>
<para>The log file must have a <parameter>log level</parameter>
of at least <constant>5</constant> to get the SMB header/parameters
right, <constant>10</constant> to get the first 512 data bytes of the
packet and <constant>50</constant> to get the whole packet.
