[lug] samba

For me it usually means that the user on the win2k machine doesn't match
with an entry in your smbpasswd.  When it does fail, I browse to the
printer (and usually end up getting a prompt for a username and pass).

I also have these options on my printer in smb.conf

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/samba
   browseable = no
   guest ok = no
   writable = no
   printable = yes


FWIW,

Hugh
