First of all, thanks to everyone who has helped me out so far resolving
my samba problems!
The latest has to do with LPRng and directory permissions. LPRng
requires 0600 permissions on the spool directory, owner daemon group
daemon. Whenever a user tries to print through SAMBA, they do not have
write access to the spool directory, as teh job comes in user/group of
the person who printed. Any ideas? The relevant entries in smb.conf are
below.
Thanks!
