ksmb printing - print jobs being denied

I've been trying to work with the ksmb plugin and I'm wondering if there are certain ports that need to be opened up to print with this?

I setup the printer as an smb printer and then changed the smb to ksmb.  When I print to the printer, first off, it prompts me for my Active Directory password, which I would rather it not do, but for the interest of just printing, I enter it.  It doesn't reject my password, yet it won't print and the printer goes into warning mode, printer not setup correctly.  If I look at the cups error_log, this is what I see:

E [19/Jul/2010:10:18:05 -0400] Unable to execute /usr/libexec/cups/backend/ksmb: insecure file permissions (0100755)
E [19/Jul/2010:10:18:05 -0400] [Job 180] Stopping job because the sheduler could not execute the backend.


This and the prompt for the password makes me think I need to have some ports opened up, to the printer from my subnet.

Thanks in advance!!!

Re: ksmb printing - print jobs being denied

If you are printing directly to the printer, that won't work with this.  I'm not aware of a printer that supports kerberos auth directly to it.
If you're printing through a print server, you don't need to have anything opened up between you and the printer, as you talk to the server, and the server talks to the printer.

Edit the /etc/cups/printers.conf file, and remove the AuthInfoRequired line, This is what is prompting you for your creds. Once this is removed, either restart cups, or reboot. Then see if printing works from there.
