Hi all, I have setup with linux samba-server(ver 2.2.1a) as my print-server under user security model with printer access allowed only for a few users. It's so happening that samba is allowing any users to fire print jobs on the shared printers,even those users who are not in the valid users list. However it is fine with normal shared folders ,where only the valid user are able to watch the shared-folders. Any idea why this happening , is there some bug in this version. below is the smb.conf I'm using. [global] security=user netbios name=PRINT-SERVER workgroup=WORKGROUP load printers=yes printer admin=user printcap name=/etc/printcap printing=cups [print$] path=/usr/local/samba/print read only=yes browseable=no guest ok=yes write list=user [Lexmark] path=/var/disk1/print/spool read only=no valid users= ABC XYZ max connections=50 printer=prn printable=yes browseable=yes comment=Lexmark Z700-P700 Serie rgds Shailesh P Shirali Teneoris Networks
