Hi samba list, We are having a problem with our cups printers here. It only occurs with windows xp ( ie not win7 or mac ) This happened after we upgraded samba to Version 3.6.5-85.fc16 (ie fedora core 16 yum install samba ) Now we can't add a printer on our win xp systems and the symptoms are as follows: 1) The printer list does not show up when in the add a printer dialogue ie \\server\printer ( it used to give us the list of printers here and I think this is critical ) 2) You can continue adding the printer but ultimately it fails with a message that says "server has lost its connection to printer" All other aspects of samba are working fine ( ie share maping ) and printing is fine on all of the win7 machines. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks Bill
