Hi there,
I have set up a server to act as a PDC, file server and print server for a record store I occasionally work at.
Everything is working fine, except browsing the printer share is painfully slow. It's not really a problem, but if something is wrong I'd like to know what it is.
smb.conf contains
----------------------------------------
[global]
...
printing = cups
printcap = cups
...
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
public = yes
guest ok = yess
writable = no
printable = yes
valid users = @smbuser
printer admin = root
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /usr/local/samba/drivers
browseable = yes
guest ok = no
read only = yes
valid users = @smbuser
write list = root
-------------------------------------
and the message in the samba log is:
----------------------------------------
[2003/02/22 16:56:39, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_printername_ok(291)
Unable to get printer status for ::{2227a280-3aea-1069-a2de-08002b30309d} - client-error-not-found

Im using version 2.2.3a12 (debian woody binary) and cups 1.1.14
Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this? It looks like it's trying to make a connection to a non-existent printer, but all the config files I know of show only the one printer which works fine.
Thanks,
Chris
