      Section number and name:

       1.16.3. Setting up the print$ share

      Describe the issue:

      NIS support was deprecated in RHEL 8 and completely removed in RHEL 9.
      However we still advise to use "@printadmin"  - a name starting with a '@' is interpreted as an NIS netgroup first (if your system supports NIS), and then as a UNIX group if the name was not found in the NIS netgroup database.
      Solution:

      We should remove the @

      Impact of this issue:

      Suggestions for improvement:

      Update the documenetd smb.conf configuration.
