[Samba] Samba print command only works on restart, help!

[Richard]

hey


the script is already in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ and is the last thing called.
i have tried changing the script to start the daemon then kill it then
restart it again, but it never works, i just get the same problem. i am now
starting samba using the inetd daemon instead and it works fine, although i
would rather start it as a standalone daemon.

any ideas?
