One of the biggest problem I have with Knoppix ( or is it Linux ? ) is that in my work place, I am not able to use anonymous account to connect to a shared printer on the microsoft network. It keeps saying permission denied. I am able to access to the shared printer using an obtained username/password but just can't connect using the anonymous account.

In comparison, a Windows machine running inside the virtualbox ( running on the said knoppix machine ) could quite effortlessly connect to shared printer without specifying any username and password.
