Hi,

I'm building a print-to-PDF queue system for a customer. A Samba queue pass 
jobs to Ghostscript. The PDF output is then provided back to the user (by email 
or web URL).

My question is on server sizing. It will be on Linux (SLES 9) and will only 
host the print queue, nothing else. Samba will be joined in the ADS domain, so 
I can recognize the submitting user (%u).

Every Windows client will have the print queue defined. What happen with the 
connection ? do I assume Samba will see 10'000 permanent connections ? Or only 
when printing ?

And then, when several client submit print jobs at the same time, does Samba 
serialize the calls to my script ? Or should I assume I can be called 10'000x 
in parallel (assuming 10'000 users click "Print" at the same time) ?

I'm as well interested at building a small "admin" web page where one can see 
the queue, the last 10 job entries, the load, possibly a usage graph, etc.

Hints from a similar setup are welcome. 
TIA,
Charles
