[Samba] Removing printers and faxes folder from windows explorer

[panos]

Thanks
We have clients where things must be very simple.  Of course we can live
with the folder, but making it as clean as possible is a
priority...though not at the cost of stability.  So given your warning,
I am not sure if it is worth it. 

What is client polling?

Thanks again,

Panos

'disable spoolss = yes' but the is not really commended since
it has been know to cause high loads on the server due to
client pollling.  Use at your own risk.

Why do people care if the 'printers and faxes' folder shows
up ?




cheers, jerry
