samba - Oct 2002 - Problem Uploading Printer Drivers from XP

I am having problems uploading printer drivers from my WinXP workstation. I
can use my Win2K workstation just fine, but when I try to use the exact same
user ID and access the exact same printer, the New Driver... button on the
XP printer dialog is disabled. The only thing I can think of is permissions
on the client side (since it is the same user ID being used). I tried
granting my user ID full access to the printer, but it still wouldn't allow
me to access the New Driver... button. I have attached my smb.conf below.
Any help would be appreciated.

Samba 2.2.5 as PDC on RedHat 6.2

Thanks.

this works for me in XPSP1 and Samba 2.2.6

don't worry about permission on the client side - 
the logged in user must be have write access to the share but it sounds
like you've already taken care of that.

there were a bunch of printing fixes in the leadup to 2.2.6

your conf file looks good to me...
