[Samba] Samba & Windows 2000 printer support on AIX

[jesper.groth.loehr at almbrand.dk]

Hello

We have a problem with Samba on AIX and clients running on Windows 2000.
We have implemented printer support as described in the document 'Printing
Support in Samba 2.2.x'.

Environment:
AIX 4.3.3 & AIX 4.2.1 with Samba 2.2.4, 2.2.5, 2.2.6 pre 2, Windows 2000 SP 3.

Problem:
Printer properties is not available to end users (eg. available RAM etc.). When
configuring the printer properties as Samba printer admin the printer properties
works ok. When I connect to the printers as an end user the printer properties
is set to default values.
Download of the printer driver from the server works fine.

The same configuration works without problems on Mandrake Linux 8.2.

The following is printed in the Samba log at loglevel 2 when connecting as an
end user (it is not printed on Mandrake Linux):
