I am having problems too. What I did notice was \\servername is error. \\servername\alfresco works.

In my case \\servername\alfresco is not found (neither using the IP address)

In C:\alfresco-community\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension

The custom-log4.properties.sample can be renamed custom-log4.properties

log4j.logger.org.alfresco.smb.protocol.auth=debug
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.acegi=debug
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.passthru.auth=debug
log4j.logger.alfresco.subsystems.Authentication=debug

But i also have set within file

C:\alfresco-community\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension\log4.properties

And has some changes like

log4j.rootLogger=error, Console, File, Auth
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.fileserver=debug
log4j.logger.org.alfresco.filesys.auth.cifs.PassthruCifsAuthenticator=debug

Maybe I could later try and get this into the custom and see a tidier solution, which lines are making the difference, but somehow between the two I get logging
