Curently I have samba configured as this.... guest account = samba printer admin = samba
Ideally we would like to use user level security and have a group in our ad server of printer admins. However, we have a problem that has forced us to abondon that scheme. When we used user authentication, and users were forced to change their passwords every 8 weeks (SOX policy), they were getting locked out. I suspect this was due to the fact that samba cached their log in creds or something like that, and AD saw that as a violation and locked them out. So I switched to share, and set the guest user to samba and the printer admin to samba. This gives our users the ability to admin the printers (not a great feeling). However, we just deployed a number of xp machines, and this scheme does not work. If I log in on a win2k machine I can get printer properties, select the advanced tab, and select the new driver button and add a driver. However, when I log into xp this New Driver button is greyed out... Any help would be appreciated. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
