VAS & Printing to Windows Printers - How!?

$

We have an active directory network with a print server sharing printers.

We have linux,mac clients who need to print to these printers, in the past I have used an LPD server on the windows print server, however, I would like to rationalise and have all clients printing through windows/samba type printing.

However, on a client with cups 1.3.9 when I create an entry for a printer smb://windowsprintserver/sharename the client, does not print, instead, pops up an authentication box, which I would like to be the signed on authenticated user, rather than asking.

I attempted to enable kerberos on cups, and this has made things even worse with kern.log filling with entries like

kernel: [11509.141476] type=1502 audit(1267433423.817:6485): operation="file_lock" requested_mask="::k" denied_mask="::k" fsuid=0 name="/var/opt/quest/vas/vasd/vas_misc.vdb" pid=17283 profile="/usr/sbin/cupsd"

Has anbody a guide on using QAS to print to windows printers via smb (or any other method?)
