[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#617429: samba: printing from Windows 7 fails with 0x000003e6

[Christian Perrier]

Package: samba
Version: 2:3.5.6~dfsg-5
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
Forwarded: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7567

This bug, which I experienced on our production servers at my work
place is confirmed by many users who have Win7 clients. Clients can no
longer print once printer properties have been modified by someone
with printer admin rights.

This bug definitely deserves to be fixed in squeeze (it makes 3.5.6
printer servers pointless when there are Win7 clients).
