What was the exact "cupsaddsmb" you were using? From the "Warning" message quoted I would guess you used"cupsaddsmb -v printer_name" or "cupsaddsmb -v -a"i didnt follow the whole discussion, so i dunno if he's using samba as a PDC. in case he uses the PDC functionality, the domain has to be added to the command: cupsaddsmb -U DOMAIN\\root -v PRINTERNAME had quite a few problems with my samba/cups config until i found out how to use the cupsaddsmb utility for a samba PDC...
Thanks, Marco, this is indeed a very good general-pupose hint to be kept well in mind. But I don't *think* it is the problem here, since the error message he gets back is: "Warning - No PPD file found for 'printer_name'!". From this I think he had been already successfully authenticated as whatever user he wanted to run the command as.. Cheers, Kurt
