Hi, I run Samba 2.2.7a on a FreeBSD 4.7 server. Samba is installed WITHOUT CUPS support. Recently I shared a printer on a Windows XP machine which is on the network. Since that moment the "ghost" print jobs keep appearing at random. The printer spool identifies them as "Low-level documents". All they are is binary rubbish. I think this has to do with Samba. Here's a piece of a logfile: "Jan 22 07:16:57 megatron smbd[9312]: [2003/01/22 07:16:57, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) Jan 22 07:16:57 megatron smbd[9312]: optimus (192.168.10.2) couldn't find service $c" (Don't make fun of my hostnames :) I'm not sure but that could be about the time that the job appeared. Any ways to prevent this? -- [ ric0@xhuman.net ] - [ http://www.xhuman.net ] Never underestimate the stupidity of the general public.

If you have a virus name that would be nice, although I not 100% sure I think I am clean. I don't think this is the problem, these problems started at the moment that I started sharing the printer. -- [ ric0@xhuman.net ] - [ http://www.xhuman.net ] I wish there was a knob on the TV to turn up the intelligence. There's one called brightness, but it doesn't work.
