Hi,

I have setup samba server on my linux box (Fedora Core 4 with latest
samba, just updated via RHN) and has configured file sharing via samba
for this server and connecting to it from my windows xp box. So far,
everything works fine and it is very fast.

Then, I configured a printer, and shared it via samba. And, I can
see+connect to it from Windows XP and can even print. But, everything
related to printing is extreemeeely slow on Windows XP, i.e. open
notepad -> File Menu->Print, and at that point notepad just freezes
for couple of minutes, and then brings the printer dialog... Send a
print out, it just freezes for a while, then prints out fine.

Below is the log file I am getting from Samba, and for some reason it
tries to connect to the samba server on Windows XP??? Have no idea
what this means, and how I can fix this. Can you please provide any
suggestions?


Cabbar,

I am seeing the exact same problem. It first started seeing the problem after moving to 3.0.20a. I have 3.0.20a running on SuSE 9.0 and I have the exact printer problems you describe. I am also running 3.0.13 on Mdk 2005LE and I have *no* problems at all. That pretty much eliminates the problem being the latest xp patch since I connect with a laptop on both systems and I can print fine under 3.0.13, but I have major slowness with printing under 3.0.20. Ethereal shows some looping that seems to be caused by DCERPC error in the communicatons. Since Bartlett did his thesis on DCERPC, maybe he can shed some light on the issue.
