    Hi
    I am having a problem where if I try to add a printer by simply typing
    \\server\printer in the Run dialog, I get a rather verbose error message
    ending in "Incorrect Function". If I add the printer with "Add Printer"
    in "Printers and Faxes" everything works fine.
    (It looks like the same problem mentioned here:
    )
    I am running samba 3.0.23c.
    I can provide full "log level = 10" logs of both methods of adding the
    printer, my smb.conf and any other information that you might need.

    It could be a bug, I'm changing the Subject and our beloved
    Samba Developers can see it, but it was working in any early
    version of Samba (before 3.0.23)?

    I haven't tried it in earlier versions.
