Dear Samba friends, I want to have the printer drivers on the samba server. I have created the following share in the smb.conf file: [print$] comment = Printer Driver Download Area path = /usr/local/samba/printers valid users = @XXX write list = @YYY, root, jo, willy printer admin = @YYY browseable = No @XXX are the normal printer users. @YYY are administrators. This is the physical directory: drwxrwxrwx 3 root @YYY 512 Feb 13 16:49 /usr/local/samba/printers There is another share for the printers: [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printer admin = @RompenStaff guest ok = Yes printable = Yes browseable = No However this share can not be accessed. It cannot be found from the windows xp clients. I do not know how to upload the printer drivers. I do not know if this setup is going to work at all. Can someone help me? -- Met vriendelijke groeten, With kind regards, Mit freundlichen Gruessen, De jrus wah, Willy ************************************* W.K.
