Public bug reported: Our users authenticate via Active Directory to login to Ubuntu 12.04 VMs/desktops. We even use libpam-mount to automatically mount their windows home directories.
However, when we set up printers via CUPS that connect to secured printers over samba on a windows server, whenever a user prints any job, they have to authenticate, even if they already have done so before. This happens on *every* document they print. Checking the Remember credentials checkbox has no effect. Ideally, we would like CUPS to work the same way as libpam-mount - that is to automatically pass AD credentials from winbind/krb to the print server rather than ask.
