Hello, I've got an rh9 box which i am using for printing. I've got cups configured and my printer is working fine. Originally, i intended to use samba 2.2.x for printing, but then i saw that 3.0 was out so i installed it's rpm instead. My first of many questions, for printing to work correctly, samba and cups, what must be specified in terms of the printing line in smb.conf, bsd or lpRNG? Thanks. Dave. ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand! Surf the web up to FIVE TIMES FASTER!

"-b" is one of the cool new (commandline-)options I discovered shipping with Samba-3. cups-demo: # smbd --help Usage: smbd [OPTION...] [....] -b, --build-options Print build options [....] Cheers, Kurt

Another means to know if CUPS support is compiled in is provided by "ldd" (certainly on Linux platforms); it "lists dynamic dependencies": cups-demo: # ldd `which smbd` | grep cups libcups.so.2 => /usr/lib/libcups.so.2 (0x40195000) Cheers, Kurt
