...s to the linux box, you will see an indicator of spooled bytes. Once it is submitted it prints right away. Is there a way I can speed this up a little bit. My clients are complaining about this.

Hi there, We have a little intranetwork with Samba 3.0.x as PDC. There are 20 Win2k-clients in several rooms and 18 users roaming from one machine to another (according to their tasks). So any user has a roaming profile. This runs almost perfect (some minor problems are still there, but the the advantages are overwelming). But there is one thing, I can't understand. Why does Win2k saves

...tcap printing = bsd [printers] print ok = yes printable = yes path = /tmp/samba/spool ;chmod 777 for spool directory gues ok = yes browseable = no ............. Under /var/spool/winspl directory, I have .config as server=PAPA ; windows machine service=HP ; printshare name password="" ............ Everytime I print, i can see files dumped into the /var/spool/winspl directory. I see status file which states "winprt is ready and printing", and sometimes lock file where it has numbers in it.

Following is the config file: ? # Samba config file created using

copy d:\bugs.ps \\ouessant\lexmark after having deleted all the samba log files and restarted the SMBd daemon from the SWAT Web interface. This leads to the INTERNAL ERROR, see samba.oulx Now, to locate the problem, I tried the same kind of command on the same file, bugs.ps, but using the SMBCLIENT application from the Linux server itself, without changing anything, nor restarting the SMBd
