I have been trying to determine why certain users are not able to print to network printers. I can, but then I am admin user. The error in log is as follows: 2000/09/12 12:22:15 user1 (172.16.0.39) closed connection to service comp1ptr I am still new to Samba, but getting better at where to look for problems, but this one is just throwing me off. There is the printcap, lmhosts contains the user1 host. I have checked permissions of printcaps and /var area, but can't seem to figure why is just closes down user1 to the service. I have set public yes. well here is what is in smb.conf as far as printers are concerned [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no public = yes guest ok = no writable = no printable = yes create mode = 0700 print command = /usr/bin/lpr -r -P%p %s lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq -P%p lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j samba 1.9.18 and unix is IRIX operating system. I would appreciate any help or points in the right direction. thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
