samba - Sep 2001 - get username of wint client

Hello!
i am a newbie, so please don?t slap me because i ask that "easy"
question, hehe.

I have a few Winnt workstation at work, they log into a winnt domain controller,
so i can/not allowed to make a 2nd domin controller with my samba box (Suse72,
samba2.2.0).
But i wanna get the username of the person who sends a printjob, so that when
the printjob was done successfully, he gets a mail.
Or if that is not possible, is there a way to get the ip of the user who
submitted the printjob?

Thank you!

Read the samba book about variables (section 4 or there about) and about
preexec and postexec parameters.
Roughly, it goes like this:
[printer]
preexec = echo %U at %m accessed this printer at %T >> PrinterLogFile
postexec = echo You have printed a job | mail -s "Jobs Done!" %U;\
           echo %U at %m finished a print job at %T >> PrinterLogFile

There are many other variables you can access this way.
As a newbie, you gotta read the book.
