The only "Learn blah in 24 hours" book I have seen worth anything is the one on
samba. It was written by two members of the Samba team. Read it yesterday in
a glancing manor. There is a chapter on printing and what not.
There is also a Samba book by John Blair (another Samba member). It is also
quite good. More low level.

Never tried and their book only mentioned win32 clients.
