[Samba] Acces Denied to shared printer on linux using Windows XP
Hi, my problem is to access a shared printer with samba on my WindowsXP workstation When I browse thru my network with Explorer, I can see the shared printer. When I double-clic on the printer, Windows XP ask me if I want to install it. I choose the right driver and click OK. The installation begin and there is no error in the installation. After the installation Windows XP open the printer's printing queue to show the printer's status, but in the window's title there is this notice: Access denied, Cannot connect to printer I would like to know how I can get rid of this problem please. This work really well in Windows 98 but not on XP. Here is my smb.conf (attached file), let me know if you find something to find this problem Note: 2.2.4 is the version of samba I use Jonny [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Re: [Samba] Acces Denied to shared printer on linux using Windows XP
Jonny, I had a similar problem last week from Windows 2000 Windows NT: I did not receive your smb.conf file so you can look at the info below to see if it matches. Also See the message from Stephen below in regards to the use client driver = yes option. You may be able to print even though the printers window shows Access denied, Cannot connect to printer I do not have Windows-XP to test this But this might fix your problem From man smb.conf I did a search for /use client which stats that if you do not upload printer drivers into samba then you will get the access denied, unable to connect message in the printer queue window even though jobs may successfully be printed. And it says that disable spoolss = yes does the same behavior as the use client driver = yes option.

But I still have the following problem: When I open the Start-Settings-Printers window It shows the printers that I have connected to from the samba print server printer_name on samba_ip_address It shows opening at 1st then changes to access denied, unable to connect and never shows the ready message that I used to get from a samba 1.9.15p8 server that I updated. * Can someone help me to get rid of the access denied messages from the Printers window? The following is what I have: My OS is Solaris 8 my PCs are either WinNT4 or Win2000 I have set up smb.conf as you can see below With it I can use dos to run net view and it works as expected I can open Network Neighborhood and find my samba print server and it will list all the printer shares along with the Printers folder. If I double click the Printers folder: I can get a list of all the printers and the number of documents that are currently being printed on each printer and If I double-click on a specific printer I can get the name of the job and person that is printing on the queue. This works as expected. I did not see this error in any of the Archives or the troubleshooting section that I found or in any of the 3 books I have. I need your expertise in solving this feature.
