Thanks to all for your input!  This experience (below) mirrors ours...
once the job is transmitted from the Windows workstation it views the
task as "complete" regardless of the outcome on the server.  I don't
view it as a "bug" in e-smith/samba/lpd but rather a windows issue that
I have to work around.

I'm loading the saco-mitel-lprng-monitor rpms onto our test 5.6 system
in a few minutes.

Thanks again.

Eric
