r7643: This patch adds a new NTPTR subsystem:
- this is an abstraction layer for print services,
like out NTVFS subsystem for file services
- all protocol specific details are still in rpc_server/spoolss/
- like the stupid in and out Buffer handling
- checking of the r->in.server_name
- ...
- this subsystem can have multiple implementation
selected by the "ntptr providor" global-section parameter
- I currently added a "simple_ldb" backend,
that stores Printers, Forms, Ports, Monitors, ...
in the spoolss.db, and does no real printing
this backend is basicly for testing, how the spoolss protocol
works
- the interface is just a prototype and will be changed a bit
the next days or weeks, till the simple_ldb backend can
handle all calls that are used by normal w2k3/xp clients
- I'll also make the api async, as the ntvfs api
this will make things like the RemoteFindFirstPrinterChangeNotifyEx(),
that opens a connection back to the client, easier to implement,
as we should not block the whole smbd for that
- the idea is to later implement a "unix" backend
that works like the current samba3 code
- and maybe some embedded print server vendors can write there own
backend that can directly talk to a printer without having cups or something like this
- the default settings are (it currently makes no sense to change them :-):
ntptr providor = simple_ldb
spoolss database = $private_dir/spoolss.db
