+Last update: John H Terpstra - June 27, 2005
+
+Subject: This directory will contain debugging tools and tips.
+
+Notes: Identification and confirmation of some bugs can be difficult.
+ When such bugs are encountered it is necessary to provide as
+ sufficient detailed debugging information to assist the developer
+ both by providing incontrivertable proof of the problem, but also
+ precise information regarding the values of variables being processed
+ at the time the problem strikes.
+
+ This directory is the ideal place to locate useful hints, tips and
+ methods that will help Samba users to provide the information that
+ developers need.
+
+============================ Solaris Method A ==============================
+File: solaris-oops.sh
+Contributor: David Collier-Brown
+Date: June 27, 2005
+Method and Use:
+To the global stanza of smb.conf add:
+ panic action = /usr/local/bin/solaris-oops.sh %d
+
+When the panic action is initiated a voluntary core dump file will be placed
+in /var/tmp. Use this method with "log level = 10" and an smbd binary that
+has been built with the '-g' option.
