[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#479512: Bug#479512: samba: locks up when cups server unresponsive

[Christian Perrier]

Quoting Michal Suchanek (hramrach at centrum.cz):
> Package: samba
> Version: 1:3.0.28a-2
> Severity: important
> 
> 
> The samba server always tries to connect to a cups server, even when
> there are no printing shares, and "load printers" is set to no.
> 
> When this server does not respond (as it drops the packets) samba blocks
> indefinitely trying to connect to the server failing to open its
> listening sockets at all.
> 
> This is serious usability, and possibly security bug. The server fails
> when another service that is not even required for proper operation
> fails.


Can you send the output of "testparm -s", please?
