[Samba] 3.4.9 printing addprinter command reparse doesn't see new printer

hello
I have cups printing with cups 1.4.4. I'm using the included
smbaddprinter.pl command to add printers to my server.
Now, my error is that when I add the printer, I get ACCESS DENIED in the
windows client, but if I check cups, there the printer is. And if I
wait a bit with the windows client or reload samba, there the printer is
within the share as well.
Now, from the man page on smb.conf
"Once the /|addprinter command|/ has been executed, |smbd| will reparse
the | smb.conf| to determine if the share defined by the APW exists. If
the sharename is still invalid, then |smbd | will return an
ACCESS_DENIED error to the client."
So... is there a way for me to ask Samba to wait a few seconds before
reparsing the smb.conf to check for the new printer? I tried adding a
sleep() to the perl script, but that seems to make the issue worse, so
that's not the choice it seems.
thanks!
