[Samba] not force-user'ing while printing?

[Kristian Rink]

Hi all,...

...currently I am trying to get the following setup up and working
here:

* capisuite (www.capisuite.de) works as an isdn/capi-based fax
  solution for the LAN.

* cups is used as printer spooler, there is some "glue" package to
  access capisuite through cups, thus generating a "print-to-fax"
  solution.

* since the clients in the LAN still are all Windows NT 4, samba is
  supposed to provide print services to everyone around.

Problem: I set up one user to fax through capisuite, and I actually
intended to set up a printer in samba, doing something, like

[printers]
	...
	force user = printfax
	force group = printfax
	...

to assign all print jobs to the fax user. For short: This is not
working; testparm doesn't complain but yet the "force ..."
directives are simply ignored, print jobs always started using the
user account that was starting the job at the workstation.

Samba:
storage:/usr/src# dpkg -l|grep samba
ii  samba          3.0.2a-1       a LanManager-like file and printer
ii  samba-common   3.0.2a-1       Samba common files used..
ii  samba-doc      3.0.2a-1       Samba documentation

Can anyone point me where to go / peek / read to get this problem
solved?

TIA, have a fine afternoon everyone.
Kris
