Re: [Samba] Access denied, and other problems, trying to administer printers

Hi,

Today I finally got time to do some more testing. I set up a Windows 10
machine but got the same problem (just wanted to make sure...).

I will do more testing tomorrow but I have a question about an error
I'm seeing in the logs. Do You know what
"access DENIED for non-printserver bits" (log level 3) means?

Regards,
Åke
