Thanks for this reference. I see it is rather old as originally set up on '06 and last modified in '08. It would see that Samba PDC setup instructions would do a better job of pointing here. The 'big item' now is which policy to get the HP printer drivers loaded to use the local printer setup, as I could not find it on what is available in XP, or I just have not set the policy right yet. As well as what policy is blocking connecting to a printer share. It would be nice if there was some logging of the blocking policy.

So I am staying with what the distro provides. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

That is exactly the error message I got when trying to connect to the PDC's print share. The kb only shows how to add this to the registry, not set it as a policy.
