Samba printer shares list
Hi group,
Since upgrading samba from woody to sarge (2.2 -> 3.0), I have the
following problem: I can still use my printer shared via cups, but it
doesn't show up in the browse list. This is my smb.conf:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.20.20 (192.168.20.20)
# Date: 2005/05/23 21:29:48
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = ILEOS
printcap name = cups
ldap ssl = no
printing = cups
print command =
lpq command = %p
lprm command =
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /tmp
printable = Yes
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S
browseable = No
And this is the output from smbclient -L:
dfokkema@betelgeuse:~$ smbclient -L nebula

This is a bit frustrating as it is now difficult to select a printer on
new clients. Of course, systems which already know about my printers can
still connect. If I downgrade samba to 2.2.5-2 everything works fine and
I have
dfokkema@betelgeuse:~$ smbclient -L nebula -U dfokkema

(You can see the hpdeskjet3845 listed). Can someone help me with this?
Thanks!
