I have been fine adding/removing printers up until this week. Now when I go to add a new remote printer I get "corrupted member file". I go to /etc/lp/member and the byte count on the new printer name is 0. I VI the file and put /dev/null in to make it the correct size and it all looks fine and dandy. I do a refresh in SAM and it shows up. Then I run a test print to it (in this case just an lp -dprinter hosts) and as soon as I do that and refresh the list in SAM it goes to NO in the enabled to print column. Any ideas? I've removed and added - removed and added... no success.
