Hello,

I'm getting some strange results when I use cupsaddsmb.
I have installed cups-samba-5.0rc3 and though 

cupsaddsmb -a -v -U root 

runs without reporting any problems, in fact the result is 
"Succesfully set HP900 to driver HP900.", no printer drivers have been 
installed.
Here are some details about the system:

System: SuSE 9.2

/etc/smb.conf
[global]
        workgroup = TUX-NET
        netbios name = pc103
        load printers = yes
        printing = cups
        printcap name=cups
        log level =5
[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/tmp
        writeable=no
        guest ok=yes
        public=yes
        printer admin=root
        printable = Yes
        create mask = 0600
        browseable = No

[print$]
        comment = Printer Drivers
        path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
        write list = @ntadmin root
        browseable=yes
        guest ok = no
        write list =root

-r--r--r--  1 root root    219540 Jan  3  2004 cupsui5.dll

I already tried this with a HP900, a Xerox Docuprint N17 and a Brother HL!660e 
- same results.
Anyone any ideas ?

Thanks for any hint.

Stefan
