Hello samba gurus,
Here is my issue, it may actually be a windows issue
but because samba is in the mix I feel like it should
be presented here. Here are the three principle
players:
a) pdcbox - A windows 2000 server box functioning as a
PDC (in compatibility mode)
b) printbox - a SuSE linux box running Samba 2.2.3a
functioning as a print server (with cups) and a WINS
server.
c) clientbox - An XP Pro machine trying to print.
I am logged into clientbox as user "tim", which is a
user in my Win2K domain. When I attempt to print or
look at my available printers I get an "access denied"
message. If I open up printbox in Windows explorer it
asks me for a username and password. If I type in my
own username and password it fails. If I type in
another username and password (just another user in
the domain with the same priveledges as myself) it
works, after this I can print. What gives? I have
verified that my account is valid and no different
from the one that works.
printbox is configured thusly:
[global]
workgroup = somedomain
security = domain
password server = pdcbox
map to guest = Bad Password
socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY
TCP_NODELAY
character set = ISO8859-15
os level = 0
local master = yes
preferred master = no
domain master = no
wins support = yes
DNS Proxy = no
guest account = guest
printing = cups
encrypt passwords = yes
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/tmp
create mask = 0600
printable = Yes
postscript = No
browseable = No
guest ok = yes
[phaser3]
path = /var/tmp
read only = No
create mask = 0600
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
postscript = Yes
printer name = phaser3
use client driver = Yes
oplocks = No
Any help would be appreciated.
