Windows 2000, Samba, and Cancelling Print Jobs?

Posted by Cliff on from the I-said-WHOA-there-horsey! dept.

Kerry McDonald asks: "I have a Linux server running Samba, and my Windows 2000 users are unable to cancel print jobs once they are sent to the server. Has anyone seen this problem? I have checked all the Samba settings, and they all seem to allow user access, but for some reason it still will not work. Help!"

    No offense, but isn't this a question better suited to the samba mailing lists? I've asked questions on there before and got very timely and helpful replies.

    After you've got your answer, why don't you buy a tshirt to say thanks? I've done it before too and its a nice gesture.

    We're getting more and more project-specific help calls in slashdot now. They dont belong here. A major quirk.. maybe. Massive bug.. fine. But not a plain compatiblity question like that.

    Please take no offence from this.. But I usually have 3 problems a week I need to ask, and newsgroups solve them better.

    But he has a point.
    It is just natural that the editors drove out everyone from slashdot who was smarter than them, it's like a company, loyality is rewarded, being too clever and having a different opinion is punished.
    I wish this angst-ridden-teenager-who-wants-shiny-toys-and-all -software-for-free trend and slashdot along with it died already.

  4. This definitely does not belong here by turboalberta · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Go to mailing list or newsgroups. This is not the right place. Who allows these questions anyway?
