hello jeremy and jordan.
autodesk announcing explicit, that samba is *not* supportet.
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/item?siteID=123112&id=2872551&linkID=2475323
our costumers are using using AutoCAD from 2002-2007 on samba 2 + 3.
IMHO, samba 2 may be a good choice for AutoCAD.
for example, AutoCAD with samba3 has a problem with special chars in
filenames.
(ä,ö, will make no problems, ü causes AutoCAD to throw a
"file-not-found" message.)
printer:
i can't remember, if there's already the parameter "disable spoolss" in
samba 2. - but this may help.
additional you can play with the ACAD-built spooler (preferences).
sorry, if i interfere this thread, but that are my experiences.

Hi List,
I'm having some problems with Samba 2.0.10 and AutoCAD drawings,
specifically when a user prints a CAD file, an smbd process is spawned
as smbuser (my guest account) which uses 99% CPU and never gives up,
even after the job is fully printed and cups has moved on. This only
happens when printing CAD files.
Samba 2.x is very old and unsupported right now....
Can you try upgrading to Samba3 and testing again.
Jeremy.
