[Samba] Smb question on Redhat 9. Publicly browsable printers whithout a password
I have samba running on redhat 9 AMD. For Windows computers to browse my Samba server, a password is always ask for. Yet I want the printer to be publicly browsable without a password. How do I do this? Thanks Chip

Better still, buy "The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide" from Amazon, or your local bookstore for 730 pages puched full of working examples and comprehensive documentation. The "Fast Start: Cure for Impatience" chapter has fully worked examples that will perfectly answer your questions. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: jht@samba.org
