Newbie question ! I have set up Samba on Ubuntu 7.10, and file sharing is working. Now printer. I tried setting it up without Point and Print, but I got "Access denied. Unable to connect" on the Windows systems. O'Reilly's good book says this can happen, so I went back to implement p-n-p. This requires me to have SePrintOperatorPrivilege status. I entered : sudo net rpc rights grant 'tow.org.uk\cjf' SePrintOperatorPrivilege and got : Failed to grant privileges for tow.org.uk\cjf (NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED) Googling for this doesn't seem to tell me anything helpful. Any advice appreciated. John French
