samba - Aug 1999 - Automatic printer driver installation for NT4.0/NT2000 clients?

Dear All,

I've seen the PRINTER_DRIVER.txt doc on getting the PRINTER$ share set up to
automatically add printer drivers to Win95 clients.  It explicitly says that
the procedure described does not work for NT4.0 clients.

I can't find any other documentation on setting up a PRINTER$ share suitable
for NT4.0 or NT2000 clients either in the distribution (2.0.5a) or the web
site.

Is this possible at the moment (2.0.5a)?  If so how?  If not when will it be
possible?

Thanks,

I'm reasonably sure there is some code for this in cvs, but it's
certainly
not ready for prime time.

NT's native network printing actually works quite differently to 95's,
so
it'll probably be a while.

A pain isn't it :-)
