Hi,

I have defined a few printer shares on Samba. I allow all guests to use my
printers. My security is 'share'. This means everybody is authenticated as
guest when trying to use the printer.

Is there a way to send a different username and password to Samba from
windows, so that user is authenticated as printer admin, like in case of
file share, when mapping the share, we can choose to use a different
username and password for connection.

I am using RedHat 7.2, Samba 2.2.8a.

Thanks,

Rohit.
