What permissions have to be set to use a printer on the samba host , ie
this linux box, from a winblows machine.
The printer is configured OK on the windows machine, but getting the
message "epsom_c82 on firewall Access Denied, unable to connect"
The section of smb.conf below
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
create mask = 0700
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
print command = lpr-cups -P %p -o raw %s -r # using client
side printer drivers.
browseable = No
[print$]
path = /var/lib/samba/printers
write list = @adm root
guest ok = Yes
I can mount from LinNeighbourhood print$ on both machines

I'm unsure what that daft windows thing is doing to produce IPC$, and
why the user is nobody and group nogroup..
I'm logged into the winblows machine as richard and the group on both
machines is MDKGROUP.
the shares are listed as follows on this machine
Domain=[MDKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.7a]
