Hello all,

On FreeBSD 6.2 patch level 10, with Samba 3.0.28,1 the following message appears in /var/log/samba/<WinXP-full-computer name>.
as requested by:

log file = /var/log/samba/%m.%U

For example, the following appears in "/var/log/samba/ms0138." (Yes, there is a dot after the computer name, and the user
name does not always appear in the filename, but that is another issue.):

[2008/01/28 17:10:40, 0] smbd/nttrans.c:call_nt_transact_ioctl(2463)
 call_nt_transact_ioctl(0x280004): Currently not implemented.

This happens each time something is printed to a network printer. Whatever is printed prints correctly, and the printer features (eg: duplex) are available and usable. The message appeared on previous releases, the previous
release being 3.0.23.

smb.conf printer entries are all the same except for 'printer name', 'printer', and 'path'. An example:

[comp-HP3si]
       comment = HP LaserJet 3si in Computing
       printer name = comp_raw
       lpresume command = lpc up comp_raw
       lprm command = lprm -Pcomp_raw %j %u
       use client driver = yes
       printer = comp_raw
       printable = yes
       browsable = no
       path = /var/spool/samba/comp-HP3si

/etc/printcap entries are the same except for ':rm' and ':sd'. The entry related to the above:

# JetDirect printserver
comp_raw:\
       :lp=:\
       :sh:\
       :rm=192.168.xxx.xxx:\
       :rp=pr1:\
       :sd=/var/spool/lpd/comp_raw:\
       :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
       :mx#0:
##


testparm -v | grep print gives:

       load printers = No
       printcap cache time = 750
       printcap name =
       iprint server =
       addprinter command =
       deleteprinter command =
       show add printer wizard = No
       printer admin =
       min print space = 0
       max reported print jobs = 0
       max print jobs = 1000
       printing = bsd
       print command = lpr -r -P'%p' %s
       force printername = No
       printjob username = %U

(+ lines for each printer, which are covered in the above entry from smb.conf)

So, why is this message appearing? And what does it mean? Can I change any configuration to make
it go away?

Any light anyone can shed on this mystery will be sincerely appreciated.

Daniel Albers.
