[Samba] Samba PDC and Automatic Printer Install

[Michael Aldrich]

Thanks.
I made the change and was able to add the driver. Although, I still cannot
print..
The printers are in 'error' status.

rpcclient $> getprinter HP2300
        flags:[0x800000]
        name:[\\mercury\HP2300]

        comment:[HP2300]

In my log.<username>:

This is when I try and print a Test Page...

In your smb.conf, you have the option "use client driver" set to "yes".
When it is "yes", it will not allow you to set the driver.  You need to
delete the "use client driver" line, reload samba and it should work.
