I found it.

Hi,
while using cups as a print system and sharing all the printers with
samba to windows clients, is it possible to 'view' a newly created
printer in the browse list without restarting smbd ? (samba 2.2.7)

Hi, Holger,
would you please share your secret with me?
How *do* you update the view onto printers from Windows clients
without restarting Samba?
For me it doesn't work since I noticed it a few months ago.
Before that, I didn't notice, because I re-started smbd very often
anyway (due to my experiments).
I am using a range of CUPS versions (up to current CVS)
and Samba up to 2.2.6. Windows clients are NT, 2K and XP
-- none of the combinations worked.
My "printcap" is updated immediately following the deletion
or creation of a printqueue (I have more than ~30 regularly
-- IIIRC I never tried it with a smaller number of queues...)
Even "rpcclient --> enumprinters" doesn't show an update...
What is your setup / versions / number of printqueues?
I mailed to the Samba list several times about that already
but never received any response (well once I was adviced to
try SIGHUB, but that doesn't work either -- I really need to
stop and start smbd)... Plus I was noticing others asking
similar things (like you).
Now *you* found it....
Cheers,
Kurt
