Description Jason Chan 2004-09-18 21:39:11 UTC
Dear all,
sorry for my poor english.

Here is my problem
I have a Fedora Core 1 Box, and Samba Server and Client 3.0.0-15 installed. 
Actually this Linux-Windows configuration is used among several sites, and 
they do not this problem, i don't know why.

What the actual problem is, when I add printer in Windows box, the connection 
seems very very slow, and i wait until it finishes. Then when I double click 
and want to see the print queue, it shows: "Opening" printer or some 
how "initializing" forever. I can print (only occasionally), but most likely 
it will hang my printing application. 

Here is my log (/var/log/samba/xxx.log)

----------------------
I don't why this server have this problem, and should I tell u i have 
customized my kernel? I have my ataraid and pdcraid bulit-in into my kernel 
instead of making modules.

If you need more information just tell me, thx very much!

Sorry,
this issue was completely a "joke"

Just because of bad firewall at the client side.
