[Samba] Weird problems with printing

[Michael Keightley]

I removed all roaming profiles before migrating, there aren't many people on
this office.   Most people have laptops here and login to the local machine
(same username and password as on the domain).  They can't add printers either,
even when they are local admins.  It wants print drivers.
Feels like a permissions problem.

Where is the netlogon.bat file stored?
