samba - Oct 2004 - page_log: no entries when printing from samba

good evening,

if i print to our cups-server from a winxp-machine via the samba-server on the
same machine  the job is done well.
i can also see the corresponding entry in
http://...:631/jobs?which_jobs=completed

but no entry is made into /var/log/cups/page_log,
which i need for some kind of "basic" accounting.

on the client-side we use
the cups-printer-driver (rc3),
on the server-side we use cups 1.1.20 and samba 3.0.7.

if the cups server is used directly 
(e.g. from another cups on another linux-box)
everything works fine.

any help would be appreciated,

karsten dello

Have you tried to print from the same machine where cups-server runs 
without invoking Samba? If it has the same problem - you will need to 
ask help on cups list: http://www.cups.org/newsgroups.php
