There's a printer in my department that is connected to a SUSE 9.0 computer. I want to make that printer as "public" as possible. No authentication, no accounting, nothing of the sort, just free for all, and accessible from Linux and Windows. Everybody should be able to delete any job. Death Match! :-) So far, in YaST I've put "Allow from All" in every section, also, "Authentication None" in /etc/cups/cups.conf. There are two queues defined, one for Linux, and a raw queue for Windows. In /etc/samba/smb.conf: [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/tmp printable = Yes create mask = 0600 browseable = No public = yes The problem is that if the printer is defined in Windows as "network printer", Windows displays "Access Denied" and cannot access the jobs queue, but it prints though. So I would guess that the "Access Denied" reffers strictly to access to the job queue.
