Hi:
Due to some intermittent issues with file-sharing performance from FreeBSD
to XP, I decided to upgrade to the latest port in the FreeBSD collection.
The result is that my printing is completely busted, and I cannot get any
logging to tell me what is happening. I've tried increasing the log level
in the smb.conf file to no avail.
Symptom:
Trying to reinstall a printer from scratch, the connection comes back on
Windows as a failure. I noticed that a spawned smbd is running and
apparently hanging:
root 3988 0.0 3.3 4060 3112 ?? Is 12:22AM 0:00.01
/usr/local/sbin/smbd -D
clint 4032 0.0 3.4 4460 3236 ?? T 12:27AM 0:00.04
/usr/local/sbin/smbd -D
The process spawns every time I try to connect to a printer from windows.
I've searched through the docs on the Samba.org website. Any additional
suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
-Clint
