[Samba] Weird problem connecting W2k workstation to domain

Hi all,
I'm using Samba 3.0.2a and after fussing around a bit, I got a W2k client
machine to join the domain. My original need to have this setup was to
create printer accounting so I put in a print command (see below) in the
printers section. Unfortunately, the accounting file wasn't written to.
Then I ran testparm -v and noticed there was a 'print command' field in
the global section which was just set to the default. Then I proceeded to
add my print command to the global section. When I restarted samba and
tried to login from the windows machine, it said the profile was missing.
After fumbling around a bit, I opened Network Neighborhood and everything
on the server was a printer, including the profiles and the home dir.
shares. The problem is that even though I've tried to go back to an
earlier set up of samba(back up of smb.conf), windows still sees
everything as printers. Below is my smb.conf as it is right now.
TIA,
John Seo
