Hello,

upgraded to Samba 3.2.6, and immediately printing went into coma. Observed
that printers lose their configurations (driver models, locations, etc).
And if I reset the printer drivers on each share, eventually they will be
lost again.

Looking at the logs we are getting panics like this:

These didn't exist before.  I've already checked the tdb files for
corruption and cleaned some of them (the ones I can), with no luck.

We are running Centos 5.2, by the way. Any ideas?


Best regards,
Pedro
