Hi,

we are running cups as print service on a single server. This server is also running
samba to export the printer for the windows world.
However sometimes we get the following messages on the samba file server.
At this time the cupsd is still running, but not accessible. So looking at the status of the cupsd
is not helpful.

Two questions:
   Whats going on with the cupsd ?
Why is samba stopping completely(!!) working, when the print server is not available ?
    How can we avoid this ?

ANY help is welcome...

Thanks and bye,
   Peer

Here are some lines of the samba file server log and some version infos:
