Created attachment 7434 [details] Proposed patch. We noticed in Samba 3.6.3 the following error messages during smbd startup: [2012/04/04 16:29:50.511526, 0] printing/nt_printing_ads.c:360(check_published_printers) check_published_printers: Could not create system session_info [2012/04/04 16:29:50.512101, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:102(nt_printing_init) nt_printing_init: error checking published printers: WERR_ACCESS_DENIED It turned out that commit 62a2a9 "s3-smbd: Regroup some init functions." by Andreas Schneider <asn at samba.org> caused theses error messages. I wrote the attached patch to reorder print_backend_init() behind init_system_info(). Is this working as expected or does it cause a catastrophic malfunction in Samba?

Andreas, could you review the patch as you did the initial change of the init ordering?
Comment on attachment 7434 [details] Proposed patch. Looks fine for me.
Karolin, please pick for 3.6.next
Pushed to v3-6-test. Closing out bug report. Thanks!
