[Samba] W9x print driver download problems with Samba 2.2.5 and CUPS 1.1.15

	Greetings,
	
	Similar to the other CUPS thread, but not the same.  Samba 2.2.5 built 
on a Sparc Solaris 9 box with Cups 1.1.5.  I've set up Samba to print with Cups 
as outlined in the docs.  I am able to download the generic Adobe print driver 
to my Windows 2000 clients but the Windows 98 clients are asking for a local 
driver to be installed.
	
	Looking at verbose output from cupsaddsmb, that looks as if it ran 
correctly (I did not see smbclient being used where rpcclient should be).
	
	Logs generated for the client while trying to add the printer include 
the following:

--------------------

	I'm wondering about the "Can't determine number of printer driver files" 
and the "fill_printq_info on <ur26> gave 0 entries" messages - sounds like 
something is NOT set up correctly.  Any ideas on what it might be?
	
	Thanks,
