** Description changed:
Binary package hint: kdeprint OR a samba-related package
Basically, I was trying to install a printer attached to a Windows XP
machine through KDEPrint. I selected Windows SMB, then tried anonymous
login (seeing as Windows File and Printer Sharing needed no password). I
hit 'Scan' and I saw the network name and computers, but I kept getting
an
"Error returning browse list:
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED"
I tried using guest but I was not able to scan the network. I searched
for the error on the Internet, and I found a solution here:
http://www.mepis.org/node/3458
First, scan the network with anonymous login, then go back and select
guest. Now, WITHOUT scanning again, expand the host with the printer:
- Viola! printer found.
+ Voila! printer found.
However, as a user, I should not have to use this workaround to install
a printer (however painless) since the workaround is not at all
intuitive.
The guest selection should be able to expand the network tree to browse
for a printer.
