Really? Can't i just open it up for the whole network with no authentication?
Does every Windows user need to be added?
I tried:
lppasswd -a 'Ron Eggler' and got this:
server:~ # lppasswd -a 'Ron Eggler'
Enter password: {no password so i hit [enter]}
Enter password again: {[enter] again}
lppasswd: Sorry, password rejected.
Your password must be at least 6 characters long, cannot contain
your username, and must contain at least one letter and number.
server:~ #
So does it require a Windows password? Hmm weird, there must be a possibility
to just open it up somehow i think, no?
