Hello Family, I have been using RedHat-6.2 and Samba-2.2.2 (and cups) with no problems, my windows_2000 boxes all print fine. On the same computer I have a removable hard-drive tray and I inserted a new drive, loaded FreeBSD-4.5, and samba-2.2.2, used the same smb.conf file (checked for path changes) and edited the two files called /usr/local/etc/mime.convs and /usr/local/etc/mime.types to comply with the hacks I did before to make 2000 work. I also reloaded the win2000 printer drivers EXACTLY as I've done in the past with Linux and it all went well. Does anyone have Samba-2.2.2 and FreeBSD working with CUPS ?
