Hello-
I am running Debian Woody, Samba 2.2.7, and Cups 1.1.14-3.
I can print as any local Linux client, but there is a permissions issue when
I try to print from Windows 2000.
My spool directory is /var/spool/cups, the permissions are set 700 to user
lp and group sys. If I chmod the directory to 777, printing works fine, but
when I restart cupsd, the permissions revert back to 700.
I am running Domain-level security, as well as ACLs and winbindd, not sure
if this matters.
It seems like I am missing something really simple, so am giving a simple
description now, but I can supply much more detail if needed.
Here is the relevant stuff from smb.conf:
load printers = yes
printcap name = cups
printing = cups
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/cups
writable = no
printable = yes
create mode = 0777
use client driver = yes
Any help would be much appreciated.
