[Samba] strange error message

[David Bear]

this is interesting.  the next question is
1) why does samba want to connect 'back' to a client sending a print
job?
2) and if it cannot connect, does it deny the print?

I think this error below was thrown becuase the user installed kerio
personal firewall on her system, ergo, no connection back.
