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!"

    We have this problem at work as well, but in reverse. SAP printing to NT printers, once it hits the NT system they cant delete the print jobs from SAP
    I usually get NT admin guys to delete them.
    In this case I think once the job gets onto the Linux system its different. Youd have to delete them under your Linux logon. Hope this helps.
