Bug Description
Binary package hint: upstart
I'm using 10.04.1.
I found that regardless the smb.conf have a [printers] section (meaning smbd should automatically share all the CUPS printers), it can't because Samba starts earlier, then the printers aren't shared.
If I do "service smbd reload" manually I get it working as intended.
The worst part is the fact Samba is started as a native Upstart service, but CUPS still is a old-style SysV service, becoming difficult to fix the dependency chain (yet I'm not sure if starting CUPS earlier is the right thing or the init script should do a smbd reload)
Both packages are up to date:
Samba: 2:3.4.7~
Cups: 1.4.3-1ubuntu1.2

Did I put upstart as the affected package? Sorry, it should be cups!
