we're using samba 2.2.9 as PDC. (w2k/wxp as clients) following strange lines i found in smbd.log:
... smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) notebook01 (192.168.10.29) could'nt find service lpb8-a4-ra
the strange thing is: the service is named "lpb8-a4-raw" also the same with the other printers: service "hpusb" -> "hpus" service "pdfplotter" -> "pdfplotte" service "pdfprinter" -> "pdfprinte"
samba is reading the services from etc/printcap.
