Hey Folks, I've spent several days weeding through list archives and FAQs. I've been given the task to debug a samba printing issue and have really no idea where to start. The version is 3.0.15a and the config in question is exactly the same as the previous version we used. I believe that was 2.8.x (not sure though) I guess the problem is that no matter what I've tried the end result is that lpr (which then grabs smbprint) gets NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED when I try to print to the windows printer. I can list shares etc on windows using smbclient but smbprint always fails. Any advice, tips, or trouble shooting ideas greatly appreciated. Here is a -d 9 output from my last attempt. --p INFO: Current debug levels: all: True/9 tdb: False/0 printdrivers: False/0 lanman: False/0 smb: False/0 rpc_parse: False/0 rpc_srv: False/0 rpc_cli: False/0 passdb: False/0 sam: False/0 auth: False/0 winbind: False/0 vfs: False/0 idmap: False/0 quota: False/0 acls: False/0 lp_load: refreshing parameters Initialising global parameters params.c:pm_process() - Processing configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf" Processing section "[global]" doing parameter workgroup = MYGROUP doing parameter server string = Samba Server doing parameter security = user doing parameter load printers = yes doing parameter printcap name = /etc/printcap doing parameter printcap name = lpstat doing parameter log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m doing parameter max log size = 50 doing parameter passdb backend = tdbsam doing parameter socket options = TCP_NODELAY doing parameter dns proxy = no pm_process() returned Yes lp_servicenumber: couldn't find homes added interface ip=192.168.0.254 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Netbios name list:- my_netbios_names[0]="RX30" Client started (version 3.0.11).
