I give up... I was going to try to do this myself, but it isn't
working. The best results I ever achieved was printing about 10
minutes after I printed the document...
I am also trying to share a directory with read/write rights. I want
to be able to access the shared directory without a password.
I am running:
Linux version 2.6.16.13-4-default (geeko at buildhost) (gcc version 4.1.0
(SUSE Linux)) #1 Wed May 3 04:53:23 UTC 2006
I can print fine from linux using lpr <filename>. I can print a test
page from the cups GUI normally.
I will be printing via this box and using the shared directory from
Windows XP boxes. (I gave up using my laptop wirelessly in Linux.)
Can you help me???
Here is my smb.conf file:
# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented
# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the
# samba-doc package is installed.
