Dear All I've a mental block here, can someone help?
I have samba 2.2.5-UL (United Linux) running on Suse Enterprise 8. I am using CUPS to print. I can logon to the linux server via my linux username and print successfully to the printer. eg. lp -dhp5000sw /etc/hosts I have gone to the directory /var/spool/cups as my linux user and can create /delete files in there. I can logon to Cups Admin and print a test page. If in install the printer via network neighbourhood i get told "unable to connect - access is denied" I use the Webmin tool and view my samba connections and can see that "I" am attached to the server on the IPC$ share. here are my conf files: smb.conf: # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) # Date: 2003/07/08 11:51:07 # Global parameters [global] unix extensions = Yes netbios name = NEWTON6 socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY path = /var/spool/cups/ workgroup = NTG-X os level = 2 time server = Yes encrypt passwords = Yes syslog = 0 veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/ log level = 1 load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name = cups [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No create mask = 0640 directory mask = 0750 browseable = No [printers] comment = All Printers create mask = 0600 browseable = no public = yes guest ok = yes writable = no printable = yes path = /var/spool/cups printer admin = root [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/drivers write list = root create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 guest ok = no read only = yes [5000sw] printer = hp5000sw printable = yes guest ok = yes log.smbd ========
