For what it's worth, I've gotten the Verify button working by installing
pysmbc (http://cyberelk.net/tim/2008/03/11/python-bindings-for-
libsmbclient/). The prompt is displayed, and an 'Accessible' success
message is displayed when authenticating.

However. the prompt to authenticate when a print job is submitted is
still not working. All print items get added to the queue with a 'Held
for Authentication' state.

When I click the 'Verify' button (which seems to use different auth
prompt code), the auth loop goes through several passes. If I understand
the code correctly, the third iteration is the what prompts for
credentials (vs. the first 2 that try unauthenticated and 'guest').

However, the normal auth loop (when printing) seems to keep repeating
pass 0 (see attached debug output on my earlier post). I may be
misunderstanding the code, but this might be a clue to where it's
failing.

Thanks
