In the past, I could set PRINTER to //server/printershare, and use enscript and lpr to print out my jobs. If I try to print now, I get the following message from lpr : lpr: printer error: can't open '\\beqbrgbrg1ms0p1\psbe31.lnk' for writing: The printer name is invalid. Upon further investigation, it seems that I cannot contact any printers anymore from cygwin upon our print server, but I can see those printers from my explorer. Ie. If I do 'ls //server' I should probably see the printer shares, like any other share on the same server. Any ideas ?

By replacing the former uid with the latter, the problem is solved. However, should this still be necessary ? I thought that a long time ago this problem was solved ?
