Hi, I have a new samba/cups printer server. The security is set to SHARE so everyone in the network can add and print to our printers even if they doesn't have any account on the server. To be able to upload printer drivers one need to log in as administrator, but one can't do that unless the security is set to USER and a login screen appears. During this time everyone is locked out from all printers. Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can solve this problem? This doesn't work for me: net use t: \\server\print$ /user:administrator Peter Nyberg Institutionen f?r Biokemi och Biofysik (DBB) Sv.Arrhenius v?gen 12 106 91 Stockholm Tel: 08-16 24 69

I would suggest you look at how to configure guest access for security = user. cheers, jerry ====================================================================Samba ------- samba.org Centeris ----------- centeris.com "What man is a man who does not make the world better?" --Balian -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFCcsbIR7qMdg1EfYRAoqsAJ96yN8R9B8ZnpwnvC8Ycq8r1PtSMACZARYD KCFTGkdIo+fZDekb9CrpxBk=hkgX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
