Well, this connection *used* to work! This client can also connect to
anohter printer which is shared the same way!
When printing (say, a test page), the job appears to go to the windows
spooler and leave the machine/finish printing fine. But it dies in the
CUPS print cycle somewhere with only the non-informative error message
error_log:E [09/Sep/2003:10:16:23 -0400] Scheduler shutting down due to SIGTERM.
Wha'?
I can't find any other relevant info!
Thanks for any/all help. later...
