I recently set up samba-2.2.3a on FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE. I'm having
troubles getting printing to work. I have LPRng-3.76 installed, and it
works just fine using the command line tools. When I print from a
windows client over smb, however, I can see the job go into the spool
directory, but then it magically vanishes, with nothing in any log
files. Has anyone experienced this type of strange behavior?
I'll include some relevant lines from smb.conf below. Thanks in
advance for any help.
