[K12OSN] OT: Wrong spool path in samba in version 5.0

I turned on samba on my K12LTSP 5.0 server the other day, and user's home directories
became accessible to Windows boxes as expected. However, whenever a user would try to
print via a printer share on the server, they would get an error about the 'Network path
could not be found'. It turned out that the printer spooler path was set to
/usr/spool/samba, rather than the usual /var/spool/samba. Changing the path fixed the
problem. I'm just puzzled as to how the incorrect path got into the samba config in the
first place. It's not something I would normally set. I'm bringing this up in case
anyone else has a similar problem. Anyone else seeing this?
