Sorry, I would suspect to also have the *right to connect*, if I have
admin rights.
Could you please add a note to the documentation of
admin users
printer admin
valid users
that it is necessary to allow the users in 'admin users' and 'printer
admin' connecting to the shares *through 'valid users'* before they
really have the right to do their administrative job?
Then nobody can stumble over this anymore...
Thank you.
