Bug Report: copy /b filename \\servername\printername does not work for Win2k client and Samba 2.2.4 server

The command from Win9x/ME client works fine to NT or Samba Servers.
The command with win2k client works fine when the server is NT 4.

The only work around appears is to use:
print /D:\\servername\printername filename
for a win2K client.

The printing problem wouldn't be so terrible if just nothing printed but, it
seems to close open file handles for the client on the server also.

The Samba server is a Mandrake 8.2 machine with the latest RPMS for cups,
samba and kernel.
