Hi Jerry, Is this something that changed in a recent version of CUPS?
The server that works (Fedora Vore 1) has: cups-1.1.19-13 samba-3.0.7-2.FC1 The server that doesn't (Fedora Core 3) has: cups-1.1.22-0.rc1.8.5 samba-3.0.11-1 Greg -----Original Message----- From: Gerald (Jerry) Carter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 09, 2005 5:48 PM To: SMITH, Gregory C.

This is currently by design and I've not come up with a better solution yet. The problem is the API used to map SMB job id's to unix job id's. The API was originally designed around lpd/BSD printing and so CUPS is dound by that current limitation. If anyone has a clean way to solve this, I'm open to ideas. But changing the API is not a practical option at this point. cheers, jerry ===================================================================== Alleviating the pain of Windows(tm) ------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ----- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "I never saved anything for the swim back."
