Hi all,
i have installed samba 3.0.7 on a Red Hat Linux 9.0 box.
I need to print on shared printers on windows print server (win98).
When i launch a print job, i can see the output queue on linux filling with
the output file, but the file never leave the linux queue.
I rolled back to samba 2.2 (with this one i never had problems) and as soon
as i finished to install it (RPM) the print queue on linux was flushed and i
could se my reports printed.
Why did samba 3.0.7 block the print queue?
Is this a bug or what? Is there any additional configurations?
Thanks for your help.

Mauro.
