10.4: Fix an NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE printing error
Authored by: bdz on Apr 18, '06 12:59:51PM

I was getting NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE sometimes and sometimes NT_STATUS_NO_MEMORY when I tried to print to a Windows shared printer from a domain. I found out that the fact that my windows account password had a ^ (caret) in it and this was making printing impossible. To get it working I went into my keychain and deleted my smb entry, deleted the printer and readded it with a different user's credentials, and although it did not work right away it ended up working as soon as I restarted my computer (the keychain stuff was probably being cached from before). I read in an AppleCare document that if a Windows resource has a "special character" or space in its name (be it a user, a machine, or unbelievably a password) then you can get the NT_STATUS_ kinds of errors. I hope this helps someone.
