settting up printers with Samba and Windows NT workstation

[a.lehman at ieee.org]

Thanks to Errol Fouquet's response  to John Humphrey regarding the
permissions on his spool directory and the print commands in his smb.conf
file, I was able to solve my printing problem as well. I changed the
permissions on /var/spool/samba to 1777 as Errol suggested, and also
realized I was missing the "-c" option for the lp command in my smb.conf
file. With those two changes, I was able to successfully print to my samba
printers.

Thanks again Errol.
