The problem is that nothing changes on Samba server, but something
starts happening on Samba. At this point the question is asked 'What is
going wrong with Samba', totally ignoring that nothing has changed.
However, as Microsoft seems to have lost the plot on printing,
something could have changed on Windows that could now be changing how
Samba responds.
