I am currently testing our company's software with Vista RC-1
and I've run into a snag I cannot Authenticate a Printer connection to a
Samba server on a dos prompt
I can connect to the printer using the GUI for windows printing
But i Cannot map the printer to an LPT port

Every windows out there will connect to this box , from 95 thru to 2000, XP
and even Server 2003. But not Vista (as an admin user of course)

Am I doing somthing wrong with samba ?
