I run samba on Solaris with encrypted passwords ... however I get people
occasionally visiting my location who need to get to certain basic
services like printing without having a user/account/password set up for
them.
A while ago I asked this list if there was some way to configure my server
so that the printers didn't require any username/password to do printing
.... nobody responded, and there didn't seem to be a way to make "guest
only" in the config export "anonymous" resources like printing.
If anyone
can answer that question I'd appreciate it.
Ok, so I just installed another samba server operating without encrypted
passwords, and re-exported the network printers to accept any
userid/password and so now I have a server dedicated to "anonymous"
guest
services.
However now, the banner pages (from the new server) all say
"server!nobody" (that is unix user id 'nobody' on the machine
'server')
and I was wondering if there was any way I could force the Solaris lp
system to somehow take the user ID samba gets from the client and print
that on the banner page instead.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
