I have a small Samba 2.2.1a plus Win2k workgroup. Samba is running on Redhat
7.2.
There is a networked laserjet 5000 using a static IP which I can print to
successfuly from the linux box, and from the win2k workstations via the queue
on the linux box.
The weird thing is that, on the win2k worksations, if I double click on the
printer icon the status of the printer is reported as
"Access denied, unable to connect". Yet it works???
Any ideas.
Here's part of the smb.conf:
[public]
path = /usr/local/share/public
public = yes
only guest = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
valid users = %S
create mode = 0664
directory mode = 0775
# If you want users samba doesn't recognize to be mapped to a guest user
map to guest = bad user
# A restricted directory for accounting files.
[accounting]
comment = Accounting Share
path = /usr/local/share/accounting
valid users = kferrone,rliu,ldelvecchio
public = no
writable = yes
printable = no
# A administrative logon for backups
[private]
comment = SFB Private Directories
path = /home
valid users = jbailey
public = no
writable = no
printable =no
browseable=no
# NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to
# specifically define each individual printer
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = yes
valid users = %S
# Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to print
guest ok = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
...snip
Thanks for any suggestions you may have.
