Re: [Samba] Can not cancel print job

I think I may have found one problem and it could be a BUG in samba or a
problem with the
Solaris printing system.

If you setup printers on samba host which is not the real print server
then you get it problems
with the solaris printing system adding on @hostname.

For example:
Step1) "\\medusa\lp131" is allowing printing, but the real printer
server is on another machine.
Step 2) If you send a few jobs to this printer you see this on the
unix front:
medusa# lpstat
lp131-530 andrew@medusa.dcs.bbk.ac.uk
48651 Mar 09 19:45
lp131-526 andrew@medusa.dcs.bbk.ac.uk
48651 Mar 09 19:45

Step 3) But when you try to cancel the jobs samba thinks you are not the
owner
looking at printing.c
"is_owner" will return false, since "pjob->user" =
"andrew@medusa.dcs.bbk.ac.uk"
so it ends up comparing "user@host" with "user".

Any thoughts?

I don't think you can switch off the @host part, so can samba and
print_job_find strip out @host part.
