Hi, I am running Samba.3.0.20b_1 on a FC4 box kernel-2.6_13.1 box with a mixed set of Win2k, XP clients. I want to enable everyone to print to a local printer on the Linux box as a guest. The XP machines can do this, but my Win2k machine insists that I log in as a Samba user before it will enable me to print. That's OK when I am logged into it (although annoying), as I know what to do, but others find this too difficult for them. I also suffer from the "Can't become connected user!" error messages, though I seem to be able to connect and do what I need... Here are the relevant parts of my smb.conf file. # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) # Date: 2005/11/07 09:30:09 [global] workgroup = ROBERTS server string = Samba %v on %h interfaces = eth1, 127.0.0.1 bind interfaces only = Yes map to guest = Bad User username map = /etc/samba/smbusers lanman auth = No client lanman auth = No client plaintext auth = No log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 smb ports = 139 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = cups os level = 65 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes dns proxy = No wins support = Yes ldap ssl = no idmap uid = some number idmap gid = some number valid users = Some users hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/27, 127.0.0.1 cups options = raw [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes guest OK = Yes cups options = browseable = No [LJ5MP] comment = Raw queue postscript laser printer path = /var/spool/samba read only = No guest only = Yes printable = Yes printer name = lj5mp use client driver = Yes share modes = No Any suggestions as to why this might be happening?
