Hi

Having switched my Samba server from a Solaris box to a RHEL3 Linux box I cannot get printing to work. Linux box is using CUPS to reference various network available printers. Printer drivers have been made available from the Samba server itself under print$. The Samba version is 3.0.9-1.3E.13.2 (the default with RHEL3) and CUPS is 1.1.17-13.3.43 (again the RHEL3 default)

[print$]
       comment = Printer Driver Download Area
       path = /etc/samba/drivers
       admin users = root, lansley, blansle
       write list = root, lansley, blansle
       read only = No
       create mask = 0644
       guest ok = Yes
[printers]
       comment = All printers
       path = /var/samba/spool
       guest ok = Yes
       printable = Yes
       browseable = No

Printers are configured on Win XP clients using rundll32,PrintUIEntry /in /n \\sambaserver\printername

Printers all show up as available and ready but test page print results in a "Access is denied" message. Accessing "homes" shares from the same Samba server work fine so user authentication does appear to be working.

I've verified that the path in print$ and printers is valid and accessible.

Any clues?

Cheers,

Bob
