Re: [Samba] Windows 'NETWORK PASSWORD' Samba printer

Thanks for the reply -
I have since upgraded to 3.0.11 and the same symptoms occur
XP/2000 work great printing/file access anonymously
WIN98 anonymous file access WORKS, printing causes a 'NETWORK PASSWORD" dialogue

I tried some other troubleshooting with no avail - unfortunately the
only thing I found to work was to add a username and password to
smbpasswd for the station (hence remove the anonymous attempt) - this
worked, but kills the concept for an anomymous print server .

Below is my smb.conf, if anyone can see something blatent wrong with
it. - I appreciate it. thanks!


smb.conf:

[global]
workgroup = prupref.com
server string = PRUPREF PRINT SERVER
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
printcap cache time = 750
cups options = raw
printer admin = @ntadmin, root, administrator
# printer mode point-n-click
default devmode = yes
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
# if there are admin issues - check this parameter and the
smbpasswd syncing
map to guest = bad password
#guest account = guestprint
wins server = wins.prupref.com
encrypt passwords = yes
security = user
include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf
logon path =
logon home =
logon drive =
loglevel = 10
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log

[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/tmp
printable = Yes
create mask = 0600
browseable = No

[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
write list = @ntadmin root administrator
guest ok = yes
force group = ntadmin
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775
