One thing to be aware of that I noticed while testing. Even with the patch applied, existing printers will not get updated entries in the samba registry. I have found no other way than deleting the registry file completely to get new entries created. I had to do the following :
$ sudo rm -f /var/lib/samba/registry.tdb $ sudo rm -f /var/cache/samba/printing/* $ sudo restart smbd $ sudo restart nmbd Maybe there is a smarter way of cleaning it up but I haven't found it -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967410 Title: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/samba/+bug/967410/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
