At which point nmbd starts a string of enforcer hits, about 2-3 a
second, until such time as the machine is rebooted.
No doubt this is due to something munged in smb.conf, but even Olaf
wasn't able to shed any light on the problem. The O'Reily
usingsamba.pdf is unforch a PDF-1.3 document, and not therefore
renderable by ghostscript's up to and including 5.50. It exits on page
13 on both machines.
However, it appears that xpdf, version 0.90, can print it, but like the
acrobat reader, only single sided. At 410 pages, thats a bummer.
