Bug Description
Sorry for my bad English.
The smbclient package doesn’t allow print in a windows 10 printer shared via samba from a Windows 10 server. The printer queue windows shows the error message: “Held for authentication”. Even if I write the authentication dates in this window, the printer doesn’t work, and it return the same message.
Writing the authentication dates in the configuration printer window neither works: printer queue shows same message, and the printer doesn’t print.
The Ubuntu previous version, Ubuntu 19.04, did allow do this. As workaround I degraded the smbclient package to the Ubuntu disco version using aptitude program. When I did this I blocked the following packages:
libsmbclient , libwbclient0 , python3-samba , samba-common , samba-common-bin , samba-libs ;
and smbclient to 2:4.10.
However the Ubuntu 19.4 implementation of smbclient package doesn’t work entirely, but every time ask for the authentication dates, although previously I writed it in the configuration printer window.
Few days ago, I tried Manjaro KDE and Manjaro Gnome and I found same error and same error message, so that’s why I think that this error appears in the newer implementations of smbclient package.
Greetings.
Thank you for your bug report. Could you add your 'journalctl -b 0' log after a failed print?
