Is everyone that is having this problem using some version Red Hat?

I am using Red Hat 9.0. I originally had this problem when I installed the Samba 3.0.7-1 RPM for Red Hat 9.0 from samba.org in place of the samba RPM that shipped with Red Hat 9.0 (which was samba v2.2.7-something, I think. I do not recall, exactly). I then compiled Samba 3.0.3 from source and the problem went away.

During all of this I was using the cups RPM that shipped with Red Hat 9.0 (not sure which version again, I think 1.1.17). I tried again with a fresh install of Red Hat 9.0 and I figured out that if I installed the 3.0.7-1 rpm from samba.org and then compiled cups v1.1.21 from source the problem also went away.

Curiously, if I had the cups RPM that shipped with Red Hat 9.0 installed then compiling cups 1.1.21 from source did not solve the problem even when I was sure the newly compiled cups was running.

So maybe there is some versioning conflict between samba and/or cups or some RPM problem with Red Hat, I do not know.

To reiterate: The problem goes away for me (on Red Hat 9.0) if I use samba 3.0.7 (either compiled or an RPM) and I compile cups 1.1.21 without any cups RPM previously installed.
