samba - Jun 2005 - "Unable to display security information"

Hello,

When adding a new printer it appears in the list and the administrator can add 
the printer, but no one else can. The security tab for printers is coming up 
with an error ("Unable to display security information") when we try
to access
it from windows (via the printers and faxes area). This does not happen with 
the printers that are already installed (it comes up like a normal windows 
printer would). Is there something we need to add to the samba config to allow 
us to change the security settings?

Thanks!
John

What Samba version ? I made some changes to the code
that creates the default printer security descriptor
but I've not seen any issues with it.  And I don't remember
which version the change went in to.  Might have been
post 3.0.14a.

Can you run

`rpcclient samba -U adminuser%pw -c 'getprinter <printername> 3'

and send me the output?





cheers, jerry
