Hi I have installed samba-2.2.7a and cups-1.1.18. After reading all the documentation samba provides as well as the cups administrators guide I am still stuck. I have added the printers just the way the samba and cups documentation says. Anyway here is my output from cupsaddsmb, It fails on the last step, so i have run that manually again afterwards with debugging enabled. I believe this to be the offending line: lsa_io_sec_qos: length c does not match size 8 Google did not have any usefull information. If you require any more information, let me know.
