samba - Jun 2003 - 2.2.8a and printers

I recent upgraded to 2.2.8, which went fine. When I checked smbclient -L
firewall, I saw I Lost my printer share.
I am using CUPS v1.1.3 for printing.   When I went back to 2.2.7a it
reappeared. 2 questions:
1> Why did it do this? I ./configured it --enable-cups- --with-pam_(smb)

2> Is there and advantage of upgrading such a small step? Or are there a big
enough issues to warrant this action?

TIA
Kev

No clue as to why off this info.  Maybe a log or two would help or a resetup of
CUPS after the update to SAMBA.  CUPS is on ver 1.1.18, using it here with great
results. Might want to update that too. I don't know.
The upgrades are for you to choose.  The greatest resource for the choices you
make might well be the change log at the samba.org sight saying what was added
and patched/fixed.  I wonder why M$ uses patches/upgrade/updates where we uses
fixes?  Your choice. I say if it works dont fix it. :) But maybe you do want to.
Cheers.

Actually, I have tried to upgrade, but have has a bit of a problem with the
libc.so.6 not being found (probably a soft link) , so Im still working on
fixing this problem.
I do believe that too, but sometimes you just get he urge to try something
new.
Thanks for the reply,
Kev
