I have configured Samba 1.9.18p10 (binaries in Debian 2.1 distribution). I can share files and directories on my Linux box and use them from both Win95 and Win98 clients. I have shared HP Deskjet attached to the Linux box in my smb.conf file. I can see the printer on both Windows clients, I can install the printer (referring to the server) but when I try to print Windows clients say "Network path is not available" or close to it. smb.conf is as follows workgroup = WORKGROUP security = user domain master = yes domain logons = yes lm announce = yes encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd wins support = no wins proxy = yes printing = bsd printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes [printers] comment = All printers path = /var/spool/lpd/hpdj browseable = no printable = yes public = yes writable = no create mode = 0700 [hpdj] path = /var/spool/lpd/hpdj printer name = lp writable = yes public = yes printable = yes print command = lpr -r -h -P %p %s [homes] comment = Kotihakemistot browseable = no read only = no preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes create mode = 750 -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
