[Samba] Strange problem, seems to be authentication related...
Hi, I have Samba 2.2.5-1 which we use in conjunction with cups (v1.1.16) to run a print server, one of the clients that uses the shared printers has a strange problem, it's a windows 2000 system which after it has been running for a while, sometimes days, sometimes hours, it will lose it's ability to print, different application and printers return different errors but the are all related to printers not being accessabl, rebooting solves the problem, the user account has the same privalages as another 10 users and all are members of the same group in a windows NT4 domain... all other users can print all the time and don't suffer the same problems? Is this a windows 2000 problem or is samba the cause? I have checked the logs for both the IP number and the hostname and there isn't any information logged for either of them. Has anyone seen or experienced anything similar? Thanks, Dave. -- "Understand the fundamental concept that opinions are like belly buttons: we all have one but they don't hold much water..."
