[Samba] printjob stays in windows queue after transfer failure

[christoph.beyer at desy.de]

Hi Jerry et al,

I'm using the 3.0.1 release in 'ADS' mode with ~450 print queues and ~150
users (getting migrated right now, will be ~3.000 in the end). In general
everything works fine apart from some smaller driver configuration
problems, the usual stuff. Though I see a lot of errors in the log files
and it seems that sometimes the print job transfer fails (get 'zero
nothing to print' messages in '/var/adm/messages'). Now in these cases the
job naturally never shows up in the UNIX queue but it stays in the windows
queue window forever. As far as I understand it doesn't get wiped out in
'../var/locks/printing/<printer>.tdb'. Of course I could write a small
wrapper for the lpr command to check that circumstance and delete the
<printer>.tdb file ;-)

Hope this makes any sense to you, I think the job transfer problem is
related to this messages in log.smbd:
