Hello Linux/Samba folks,

am new on Linux/Samba and in dying need of help. From the error message:

insufficient permissions to open spool file /var/spool/samba/smbprn.000016.jp8nNO.

Here is a copy of my smb.conf: In most cases, i have edited my smb.conf using the root console screen and added/edited printers thru YaST2.

my windows version is 2000NT and my Samba version is 2.2.3a Meanwhile I have created same user and password accounts on both Servers. 

I `ll appreaciate all the helps.
