Hello,
I couldn't find an answer to this small question in google/man/faq:
why do I use lose my printer if I use registry backend?
config backend = file (full config file below):
...
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
create mask = 0700
printable = Yes
browseable = No
guest ok = yes
...
$ smbclient -kL //venkman
...
EPSON_Stylus_CX5900 Printer EPSON Stylus CX5900
...
config backend = files, delete everything except [printers] and
include "include = registry":
...
[global]
include = registry
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
create mask = 0700
printable = Yes
browseable = No
guest ok = yes
...
$ smbclient -kL //venkman
...
EPSON_Stylus_CX5900 Printer EPSON Stylus CX5900
...
**BUT** if I change to config backend = registry, I no longer see my printer
...
[global]
config backend = registry
...
$ smbclient -kL //venkman

Why? (and no, disabling kerberos makes no difference...)
