Re: printing to a remote debian host?
hi ya marin
> i appreciate your interest :)
wait till you see the bill :-) hehehehe...
> heres the smb.conf
good
and since things are not working.... lets change stuff...
a. am assuming the debian box w/ the printer attached
can print
b. am assuming that windoze can see the debian box in its
network neighborhood ??
c. what is the output of:
testparm
testprns phaser /etc/printcap
smbclient -U% -L localhost
nmblookup WORKGROUP#1B
#
# and the problem you having.. is the last part..
#
d. am assuming the debian or windoze/mac box cannot yet print??
see changes to smb.conf below..
have fun
