Samba printing help

[captain insano]

I am having problems with my samba setup. I have redhat 8.0 on my server. Heres my dilemna. Everything works fine but I cannot print from any account but root. I know this is a permission thing i think. This problem is the same on all my workstations. 98 xp and 2000. Can only print from root. Thanks for all your help

Could you check the perms of /var/spool/samba?

[captain insano]

drwxrwxrwt 1777 root is the owner

[kpzani]

isn't there a setting for the smb.conf which is something like printer admins in there you can place groups of people who get access to the printer and delete jobs from the queue etc.

[Dolda2000]

There are many such options.
Captain, can you post your printer sections in your smb.conf? (Inside code tags, please)

[captain insano]

Sorry for the delay. I figured it out. My /var/spool/lpd/laserjets permissions kept going back to only root having print privledges. How do I make the permissions of a file sticky?

[Dolda2000]

chmod o+t filename

or

chmod 1??? filename

Thanks Dolda, I now have a fully operational primary domain controller thanks to you. To Hell with Bill Gates. :P

YEAH!

Dolda still having problems! When I reboot the machine it gives me an error message saying permission are not 0700 they are 07777 this is when lpd is loading. I go back in and they are changed again to lp only having privileges to read write and execute. What in the boot process changes those files? Here is my smb.conf
