Printing to a Linux printer via Windows


Hi,

I am trying to setup a Linux machine to act as a print server in a totally microsoft domain dominted type setup. I have used a small P1 and installed the minimum installation of SuSE 9. I then configured the printer on the machine and edited the smb.conf file to make the printer public.

I have even used Webmin, but I don't seem to be geting anywhere.

However, from any of the windows pc's in the domain I type \\ipaddress..\
and it opens up a window showing the printer. I then double click on the printer and it installes. But when I go to the printers in windows and open it, it stated " Access denied" Now from what I can gather I need to configure each user on samba, but how does this tie in with the domain ?

How can I setup this machine to allow anyone to use the printer ?
