The print service is probably running but not listening to external
network requests.  You probably need to reconfigure it as shown below:

Bernie's post is most interesting, it must be another effect of
netservices(1M), that was introduced in U3. Secure by default, and many
services are now only listening on localhost by default.
I knew sendmail, I discovered rpcbind this week, and now the print
system. It's good to see, just a lottle bit disturbing :-)

That explains why sendmail isn't working either on all the boxes I
upgraded.  Since the S10 U2 was working fine I did not worry about
it..now that it's dead that's my next problem(fortunately sendmail
isn't critical until later this year).  Sun really need to mention
that somewhere in the install.

Re: Samba 3.0.28 Printing

Anyone have any ideas here?  I'm really stumped.  I'm pretty sure its a 
config issue, but I have no idea what I'm missing.

Thanks,
Michael

It is quite well explained IMHO. You have to tick a box to get in that 
state (it is not the default), and there's a blurb about it.
Admittedly, one tends to underestimate it, but nowadays, there's really 
no open service after install, except ssh. Just, we're too used to have 
Solaris open for everyone to poke in.

I don't think (I am doing text installs--not the GUI installs) the
blurb explains that some services are running, but not listening for
external requests.  I pulled my hair out for 3 days on sendmail before
I just gave up and moved on since it wasn't critical then.

All the blurb says is that you can turn some services back on that you
want.  It should say sendmail/remote printing...won't be listening
externally.
