[Samba] Re: 2.2.5, Sol 2.8, W2k - Printers...Status: Access Denied unable to connect - ??

[peter.a.bryant at mainroads.qld.gov.au]

Is it fixed, or just avoided?
I thougth that 'disable spoolss'  meant that  you disable the ability
to automatically download printer drivers from Samba.

Does anyone know if this is correct??

thanks
