I cannot add a printer on my Ubuntu machine via Samba or CUPS which is connected to my Windows 7 machine. I keep getting authentication dialog box when I try to access the printer on my Win 7 machine. And despite the correct username and password, it gives me either "Permission Denied" or "Password Maybe Incorrect".

I even applied the "hot fix" as per the Samba wiki!

Nowhere to turn?

My Ubuntu machine is connected to the router via ethernet, which I guess is DHCP. Samba works fine as far as mounting shares and sharing files with my Win 7 machine and vice versa. It's only the printer I am having problems with. And besides, if I connect the printer to my Ubuntu, I can print from Win 7!

Hi Chev,
I downloaded the .xps, but what does it do? I cannot open it.
Can you please explain.

Ha! Finally, after months of trying. My Ubuntu machine prints from my HP printer connected to my Windows 7 machine.

The problem was that god-damned Windows Live Sign-In Assistant(!*?). Uninstalling same let me access my print shares on Win 7 without having to log in!

Shares login problem

I have a very specific problem.

I have Windows 7 shares working 100% with most devices - eg. other PCs (Vista), an Android file viewer, etc. These all have 'everyone' access and no passwords.

One device (Technisat sat box) can access shares on all other devices EXCEPT Windows 7 when a login box appears and no combination of user/password works.

I have changed every possible value (regedit policies) recommended in 100s of posts. Nothing works.

I have been told that the failure is due to MS-RAP being deprecated in Windows 7. There is no possibility to modify the network parameters on the sat box. The only solution offered by Microsoft is to install and use Xp-mode!!! Can this be really the case?

Is there no known fix to reinstate the ms-rap protocol in Windows 7 so that other devices can use shares as in Vista and Xp (and linux, etc).

This is driving me nuts.

Help please!!!????
