Repost, kinda urgent: changing printer device settings: changes not applied.
Please excuse me, but I haven't found an answer yet, and still
trying. Does anybody have a clue, even a tiny one?

Hi,
I'm using samba-2.2.1a on a Debian Linux box as a Debian package.
It only serves as a printserver for about 35 printers which are
all in /etc/printcap. Samba exports them all through the [printers]
section in smb.conf. "guest ok = yes" for the [printers]
The problem is as follows:
- printadmin (having uid 0) logs onto the printserver using a
win2k client
- printadmin right-clicks on a printer, chooses properties and
chooses the tab "Device Settings".
- printadmin changes a few settings and clicks "Apply" and then
"Ok"
Ok.
- User logs in through win2k client. Will be mapped to guest user.
Checks "Device Settings" for the same printer as printadmin
changed.
- Changes are not visible, changes are not applied.
Hmm...
- printadmin logs in again.
- printadmin clicks "Device Settings" tab of same printer again
- Changes are not applied; original settings are back in place.
...
Access rights on the filesystem are ok. The directories for [print$]
all have 0755 and are owned by root.root. User printadmin has uid 0
Here is, just for being complete, the smb.conf:
===========================================================
[global]
netbios name = Printserver
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printcap
printer admin = printadmin, @printadmin
load printers = yes
guest account = nobody
security = share
; map to guest = Bad User
workgroup = MYGROUP
server string = %h printserver (Samba %v)
syslog only = no
syslog = 0;
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%U
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096 SO_RCVBUF=4096
encrypt passwords = yes
os level = 0
domain master = no
local master = no
preferred master = no
name resolve order = bcast lmhosts host wins
dns proxy = no
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
unix password sync = true
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:*
%n\n .
[print$]
guest ok = yes
browseable = yes
path = /var/samba/print
read only = yes
write list = printadmin, @printadmin
[printers]
guest ok = yes
browseable = yes
path = /var/samba/printers
printable = yes
write list = printadmin, @printadmin
====================================== End smb.conf ========================
A loglevel of 2 tells me this:

Any help would definitely be appreciated.
