XP breaks samba.  I managed to work around it once, but it only worked
sometimes and everybody had to be set up just right and I can't
remember how we did it.

Microsoft recently released, for free, UNIX Services For Windows 3.5.
I suggest you install that instead, since you get the benefit of being
able to use NFS for filesystem sharing and I think LPR for printing as
well.

Plus, they include a lot of the standard unix tools, too.

My buddy fox still plays for both teams bigtime...he runs SuSE and
Debian, but he's also a beta tester for Microsoft and has a Windows
environment.  I was a little surprised at his take.
