I'm having some problems with our Samba Add-Printer-Wizard setup and CUPS. Everything is working fine (drivers upload, download, configured) except for one thing. Both my addprinter and deleteprinter scripts are forced to restart Samba in order to successfully complete their respective adding and deleting. Because of this, sometimes Samba will not come back up correctly.
I read that normally Samba will re-read smb.conf and pick up any printer entries and complete the process. However, when dealing with CUPS as the printing subsystem, the printers are stored separately in (usually) /etc/cups/printers.conf. If I do not restart Samba during this process, the client receives an "Access denied" error message. Is there a way to get Samba to read the CUPS printers conf info without restarting Samba? Thank you.
