[Samba] strange printing problem

Hello,

we have some trouble with printing via samba. Sometimes users get the 
windows error message that the "system couldn't find the file". sorry for 
bad 
translation from german to english. ;-) After klicking on "repeat" a lot 
of times 
printing works.
Installed version is 2.2.7a. Following lines are in client machine 
logfiles:

[2003/01/10 18:14:47, 0] tdb/tdbutil.c:tdb_log(531)

I'm not sure but I guess these messages have something to do with my 
printing problem.
As far as I remember we haven't had these messages with 2.2.6. And of 
course also not this strange problem.
It seems to me this appears since upgrade to 2.2.7. I hoped it will 
disappear with 2.2.7a but it doesn't.
Any ideas what to do? 
btw, going back to 2.2.6 is not exactly what I want to have to do. ;-)

Thanks in advance

Gustav
