SuSE 7.1 timeout problem

[Marcel Kunath]

I figured SuSE's lprng.rpm was at fault and compiled for 2.2.18 kernel.

I pulled down the source or lprng and did

./configure --disable-gdbm
make
make install

adjust path names in smb.conf and smb.conf.nobody

and the problems went away. Thank god for the source!!!!!!!
