Questions: How can I tell which version of samba I'm running? Is there a command I can run to do this? I'm trying to set up printing from Linux to a printer attached to a windows machine. I have some questions: According to Robert Eckstein's book, smbprint can be used but the guidance implies that smb.conf does not even need an entry for this. Instead it discusses setting up the /etc/printcap file and a .config file in the /var/spool/... subdirectories. It it true that I do not need an entry in the smb.conf file to do this? Will blanks in the share name (on the windows side) cause a problem on the Linux side? Does each separate printer require its own subdirectory in /var/spool/... or /var/spool/samba/... ? We have a printer on a jet-direct box with it's own IP address. This printer is installed on a windows machine with it's drivers. From Linux can I print directly to the printer across the network without samba? Can I utilize the drivers installed on the windows machine using samba? Wayne (wayne99@att.net)
