I'm getting really confused with trying to configure printing from my
7.3 box via smbclient to a printer attached to a win2k.

The main confusion I have is what the URL is supposed to look like at
the question on cups web admin interface.  And how password is handled.

  Printer = d145 deskjet named hp_printer
  smbclient share name  = //chub/hp_printer
  w2k share name        = hp_printer

On the `cups' Admin interface at
Q: Device for hp_printer
A: Windows Printer via Samba

Q: Device URL
(I've tried several things here.. currently:)
A: smb://chub/hp_printer

How is the password stuff handled?  The samba docs seem to be talking
about using the users unix password.  But the win box wants the
Administrator password.

I tried a URL like:
smbclient //chub/hp_printer -U Administrator.

Hoping to be prompted for passwd.  (no soap)

With the above Cited settings in place; tailing
/var/log/cups/error_log/access_log:

Not suprising since no password was supplied but how is it passed.
And does this output mean its accepting my guessed at URL?

I can by pass cups and login to that share with smbclient:
 smbclient //chub/hp_reader -U Administrator <RET> PASSWORD

And `put' a file that gets printed (but with the lines stair
stepped).
