Description Andreas Schneider 2014-02-27 08:58:29 UTC
The spoolssd tries to register at epmd and fails if epmd is not configured. So we end up with smbd running but no spoolss support.
Comment 1 Marc Muehlfeld 2014-02-27 09:33:14 UTC
Just for documentation: Currently you need
        rpc_server:epmapper = external
        rpc_daemon:epmd = fork 
        rpc_server:spoolss = external
        rpc_daemon:spoolssd = fork
to enable spoolssd in smb.conf


Andreas patch fixes this and
        rpc_server:spoolss = external
        rpc_daemon:spoolssd = fork
is enough to get it working.

I can confirm, that this patch works fine on 4.1.5.
