Dear Maintainer,

After setting "log level = 1" in /etc/samba/smb.conf, the output of
"testparm -sv" erroneously reports "log level = 2".

This problem appears to affect testparm only; actual log level in force as
reported by "smbcontrol smbd debuglevel" is correct.

I have enclosed my smb.conf and "testparm -sv" output, with site-specific
usernames and host names edited out, just in case they may be useful.

Thanks and Regards,
Frank Chung

We still overwrite the log level (due to internal handling), but now
overwrite it with 1, even if the smb.conf says log level = 2.
