Hi all,
I am new to this list, but have been struggling with the following problem
for a while:
I have samba as PDC working fine except that on xp sp2 it is not possible to
connect to any of the printers installed on samba.
It says something like " the policy settings on this machine prevents
connecting to this printer".
However I have not set any policy settings on that xp box.
How can fix this?
David suggested this but no luck as I get a different message now:
"Hi Csaba,
You need to set the Point and Print functionality for your domain. If it
remains unset Windows interprets that as "not allowed".
See this Microsoft KB article for more details:

regards
David"

Now I am getting this:
After playing with the settings you mentioned now I am getting a different
message when trying to connect to a printer:
"You do not have enough rights to connect to the selected printer".
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Csaba
