[Samba] Ubuntu Jaunty samba 3.3.2 print$ no write rights even though I do; -)

Initially when I posted my access problems to print$ I was using the new registry based smb.conf I had my whole configuration in the registry. Now I move my printers and print$ back to the text based smb.conf and I copied the standard ubuntu debian [printers] and [print$] out of the original ubuntu package smb.conf and the only modification that I made was under the [print$] I change read only to no instead of yes. I can not write to the share. Simply renaming print$ section to print I can access the share and write to it with no problems. Any more suggestions? I need to get this resolved. Here is my smb.conf now:
[global]
# configbackend = registry
include = registry
[printers]
comment = All Printers
browseable = no
path = /var/spool/samba
printable = yes
guest ok = no
read only = yes
create mask = 0700
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /var/lib/samba/printers
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
Thanks

I did the suggested updates to app armor and this did not solve the problem.

Well, I did read the fine documentation and the documentation for this current situation it was no help. The reason I am using the registry for the smb.conf is memory savings, instance changes of smb.conf going into effect, and maybe future clustering. Also, I will state if using the samba registry method is not the proper way of doing things then why would the Samba developers add this feature into Samba? ;-) The reason I set the share with the current rights, is to troubleshoot the problem and prove that my file rights were correct. When I setup the print$ share "the proper way" it is still read-only even though I had writelist in effect. I currently have 1200 pc connect to a samba-ldap servers with the proper setup with no problems. I will investigate the app armor settings
Thanks

Why are you doing this?
I think you should reread the excellent Samba docu again.

You make your own changes. That's really fine.
