When I try to map a Linux file system to a windows 2000 machine, I get the
following error message with one user ONLY.  The account is for a printer
which does scanning.

	 

Samba server is Suse Linux Pro 9.0
Samba version 3.0

Smb.conf file
# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented
# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the
# samba-doc package is installed.

All OTHER users can map this file system and other file systems as well,
without a problem.  Any help appreciated.  More info suppled upon request.
