Hi
i have tried these Patches on our samba 3.0.7 (Cups 1.20, Solaris 8) installation
Here some observations
The problem with the queue updated disappeard imediately
Our printserver (with netbios name printserver and IP 129.247.189.2) shows the printers as
printername at printserver
But clients who had connected printers during the time when samba 3.0.7 shows a name
like
printername at 129.247.189.2
keep this name
I am unable to remove the connections to these printers from the client to server as normal user.
There is an error like "no such printer on printserver",
but printing is possible to this printer !!!
I don't now, if this is just a wired W2k and XP caching behavior, or if there still is a problem.
I noticed, that if I connect some printers after the Patch Update, they still connect as printername at 129.247.189.2
But after renewing the driver on the server (cupsaddsmb) the connection works as printername at printserver
Thank you very much

Both fixes have been checked in for incusion in the next 3.0.8 preview release.
