I am attempting to set the SePrintOperatorPrivilege right on my RHEL 5.2 samba server and need some guidance. The samba box is currently joined to an AD forest in which I have a delegated OU, I do not have a Domain Admin account. Samba seems to want/need an Admin account in order to make changes to the server configuration such as rights. So the question is. Is there away to set a local administrator account or to map my AD account to a local administrator? Thanks, Derek
