Michael,

Someone sent us a patch for krb5 authentication in smbspool.
The proces is to use the device URI first, then try krb5, then try 
anonymous IIRC.  The code in the SAMBA_3_0 and trunk branches 
currently.  Just in case you didn't see the previous discussion
about it on the list.






cheers, jerry
