Network printing from windows to my linux box is hit or miss. It seems to take a long time for the printer (Brother HL5050) to show up even on the local box using smbclient. Also, netstat -t -n shows over 930 entries of the form: tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:49166 127.0.0.1:631 TIME_WAIT whenever a windows machine is online. Any ideas?
