I was able to add a bunch of samba-networked printers to the Xp machine. I recently added 2 new printers to the network. I added the printer names to my samba "printcap" file. I'm able to

I was wondering if I replace the mswsock.dll with the one on my winXP partition could solve the acceptEX problem. I have both win98 and winXP CDs (my winVista Laptop didn't come with any), so I was thinking if I replace those problematic DLLs or use a full windows installation somehow, it might solve this problem.
