I'm setting up a print server machine to serve hosts in an Active Directory domain. Debian GNU/Linux ("sarge", current testing branch), Samba 3.0.0beta2-1.
Success so far:
- All steps in the current DIAGNOSIS document <http://au1.samba.org/samba/devel/docs/html/diagnosis.html>
- Sharing printer drivers from the [print$] share (yay!)
- Connecting to the Samba server from a Win2000 host
- Connecting to individual printer shares from a Win2000 host
Failure: - Printing anything to said printer shares.
The Win2000 client, when attempting to print a test page to the printer, immediately responds with "Access denied" and an offer to lead me through the printer troubleshooting help.
Selected portions of 'testparm -vs':

The frustrating part is that this was working briefly a week ago, but is not currently and I can't determine why. This is small comfort of course; but it does show that it's at least possible to get this working :-)
