%u is the username of the current service according to man smb.conf in your case the print service is running as user nobody. %U is the session username (the username that the client wanted, not necessarily the same as the one they got). %U is silently ignored for guest users, i.e. those who don't authenticate on connect. I think that you have to set up proper mapping of windows accounts to nix accounts to let the print server differentiate between users. How you do that, AD, LDAP, whatever is a variable. I've never set that up myself. Hopefully someone with more samba chops, or the samba documentation will reveal the secrets. -- Rick DeNatale Visit the Project Mercury Wiki Site http://www.mercuryspacecraft.com/ -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/
