I've also noticed this behavior with RHL9 and Samba 3.0.2a.. It occurred
each time I attempted to install a Samba networked printer on a Windows
98se workstation. Steps taken:

1) Installed and modified KDE's "pdfdistiller" script into
/usr/local/sbin

2) cd /usr/lib/cups/backend

3) ln -s  /usr/local/sbin/pdfdistiller pdf

4) d/l & copied Adobe distiller.ppd file to /usr/share/cups/model

5) d/l & installed CUPS & Adobe postscript drivers to
/usr/lib/cups/drivers

6) Restarted CUPS and Samba

7) Used lpadmin to created pdfwriter "printer"

8) Used cupsaddsmb to install pdfwriter drivers

9) From W98se PC: right click on "pdfwriter" printer icon. Select
"Install". The installer errors out.

10) The smbd error is noted in client machine error log.

Ideas? Suggestions?
