I am following Michael MacIsaac's "Print Serving Solutions Using Samba &
CUPs" presentation
and have some config problems that I don't understand:


1.  I ran the "cupsaddsmb" command and I see that it created
     InfoPrint_1125.PPD,  which looks right for my Infoprint 1125 printer.

     Not sure why we're using W32X86  (how does that relate?)

     Problem:    When I go to add the printer to my W2K client (and
download the driver)... I get
                           "The server on which the 'Infoprint_1125'
printer resides does not have the correct printer driver installed, if you
want to
                             install the driver on your local computer,
click OK"

                           Then "OK"

                            Then "Type the file where the file is located"
and it's looking for an .INF file...not a   *.PPD  ???

       When I added the CUPS printer with the "lpadmin" command I did not
know which *.ppd.gz to use,
       so I just picked the "Infoprint_12-gimp-print.ppd.gz "....maybe that
is related to my problem?

Any help would be appreciated.

I am at Samba  samba-2.2.8a-108  on  SLES8 SP3



2.  Also the UPLOAD procedure did not work for me..that is why I used
cupsaddsmb.
      On the foid where is reads  "There should be no driver".... that was
true...but the
      "New Driver" button was grayed out and unselectable.


TIA,
