Thank you.

Regarding faq entry:
If it is, I was unable to find it.
As far as I understand, when a "Power User" is logged in the Win2000,
then windows assumes that it has administrative rights to the printer.
I suppose it should go in Samba-HOWTO-Collection in 18.14 or 19.19.
Should I file a bug report?

Regards,

Olaf
