Hello,
for some new printers in our company we want to set up a samba server with cups. We use w2k and wxp as clients.
Because we want to make some of those printers public for open rooms we have some problems:
We use novell for some rooms and for other rooms an active directory. The Novell-clients use a local user account for login.
Every client should use the printers without insert a password, so we need to use the guest account.
I had set up the printers in cups and see them in the samba share. At next I have to login on the samba share from windows to install the server-saved drivers for windows. And this doesn't works...
Every time I insert \\ip-adress in windows I become access as guest. Then I have tried to connect with "net use z: \\ip-adress\printers", where you can insert a different login name for the share. But he doesn't accept this user... He asks for the guest password again and again and don't give an error.
So I don't know how I can make this work and so I want to ask for some help here. Does anyone use this set up and can give me some advise or how-tos.
As Unix-System we use debian etch.
Here is the configuration I already have:
[global]
workgroup = my_workgroup
server string = %h server
