Has anybody worked with KSMB printing? I've got a working deployment to
some test boxes. I've adjusted the URI of the printers to the ksmb
requirements and uploaded the definition to casper. When I push down
the driver / ksmb package / printer definition to a box and do a test
print, the job hits the local mac queue and goes out as normal but it
never prints. So I watched the server and noticed it never hits the
printer server queue.

However, when I manually map the printer, go into CUPS and adjust the
URI to the KSMB then try and print, it pops up asking for credentials
and prints, it looks like something changes from the time it's uploaded
to casper then pushed back down to the test box where it stops working.

Same driver pushed down, same ksmb print app, same printer(s).

I've also noticed that while working on various test boxes it never
prompts for my credentials, and after the 3rd printing attempt it locked
my account out of AD, so somewhere it's passing credentials.
