Thank you ever so much for pointing me to :local security
policy. That was indeed the solution.
Thanks again.

Thanks so much. I too was struggling to solve this but searched on pcreview and that was the solution to my problem. Local security policy can be found by start->run->gpedit.msc->computer configuration->windows settings->security settings->local policies
thanks, trying to nework printers from a 64 bit machine to a 32 bit machine is not easy, thanks for the info on user permissions, i wondered where it had gone since it wasnt in the same place as W2K. here is how i did it if it helps anyone
How to network printers from 64 bit to 32 bit machines
And make sure you check the "Deny access to this computer from the network" setting because any entries there override any entries in "Access this computer from the network"
