Hey folks. I have samba 2.0.7 running just fine on a freebsd server. I have file shares that work just fine for my windows clients. I have set up a deskjet 842C on the freebsd box and I can print to it just fine. Im using apsfilter with it. I have the printer set up and I can see it from my windows clients, but print jobs submitted to the queue never get printed. Im not sure wether to use bsd mode or plp or what. I can see from my log.computername file that the user is connecting to the printer service, but thats it. What else can I look at to troubleshoot this? from my log.winblows: [2000/08/27 10:11:20, 1] smbd/service.c:close_cnum(583) winblows (10.1.1.11) closed connection to service DeskJet [2000/08/27
