Sharing a printer to Windows XP clients with Samba and Cups



Hi,

I tray to setup my home network to share a printer to Windows XP
client with Samba and Cups. 

I have a firewall/router (Pentium II) that have three network
interfaces: 

the 1. one is for the Internet provider - eth2
the 2. one is for the DMZ zone - eth1 - IP 192.168.2.1
the 3. one is for the LAN - eth0 - IP 192.168.1.1

The USB printer is connected to the Debian Etch server that is on DMZ
zone. 

The Windows XP is on LAN. This is a Pentium 4 dual boot system with
Win XP and Debian Etch op. systems.

>From Debian Etch system I can to print, but from Win XP I can't.

I setup firewall/router with help of Shorewall, and have rules:
SMB/ACCEPT      dmz:192.168.2.100       loc:192.168.1.100
SMB/ACCEPT      loc:192.168.1.100       dmz:192.168.2.100

I followed the steps in this tutorial:

but can't to setup things right.

What am I missing here?

Any advices will be appreciated!
