Jerry,

Turns out the problem was partially my own. The error was caused by my
using //HOSTNAME rather than just HOSTNAME with rpcclient. When I omit
the slashes like I'm supposed to, there is no error message.

That said, it still doesn't work. I have a lot of printers with drivers
assigned that work fine but enumdrivers returns nothing. Here is an
excerpt from enumprinters, that illustrates the driver mapping:

flags:[0x800000]
name:[\\rwja-lm\ljpoff2]
description:[\\rwja-lm\ljpoff2,hp LaserJet 3380 PCL 6,ACS Piscataway -
S-B11 - HP LaserJet 4]
comment:[ACS Piscataway - S-B11 - HP LaserJet 4]

The dump.pcap file is attached to this message. I tried this on 3.0.22
this morning and it seems to work OK (I run 3.0.11), however, like I
said, IIRC this breaks only after I have all of my production drivers in
place (which I don't have time to add to the development host that is
running 3.0.22 just yet).

HTH anyway,
