Problems with samba

[Marcel - Titus MARGINEAN]

	I installed Samba on my Linux box, then I got next problems:
1. Printing from NT. When I try to connect a network printer to my Samba 
printer , NT report something like "invalid printer name" and in log 
writed by Samba appear:

..............
smb_bcc=14
switch message SMBopenX
become_user now uid=(0,507) gid=(100,100)
02/20/98 18:00:38 error packet at line 3677 cmd=45 (SMBopenX) eclass=2 ecode=4
size=35
....................
2. Some problem when I try to connect a printer from win 3.11:

.................
smb_bcc=1
switch message SMBopenX
Skipping become_user - already user
unix_clean_name []
unix_convert(,83)
New file 
unix_clean_name []
Error opening file . (Is a directory)
02/20/98 18:13:45 error packet at line 962 cmd=45 (SMBopenX) eclass=1 ecode=5
error string = Is a directory
size=35
.................


3.  In NT mapping network drives work fine but in 3.11 all file names are
truncated to 3 chars, first char is all the time '~' followed by 2 alpha.
All the files was copyed from dos so they are dos file names.
Log report:

......................

	I have try a lot of combinations with: mangle case = yes/no,
 mangled name = yes/no, default case =lower/upper but the result was
the same.

	If there somebody know what is the problem and how can I solve it
please answer me.
	Thank you in advance,
		M.T.M.

P.S.
	When I start "Network Neighborhood" NT 4.0 it did't find my server.
	It is normal ? With Map Network Drive connexion succed.
	I have Samba version 1.9.00 from InfoMagic Linux distribution.
