Hi there,
I just caught a little bit of the previous discussion on Samba when I joined
this list, so please excuse me if I'm re-earthing an already beat to death
topic on newbies and Samba ;-)
I'm running Mandrake and Win98 (dual boot) here at home durring my summer
holidays from College. My parents run their own accounting business out of
the house and therefore have a pre-existing network. So, being the curious
student that I am, I'm learning the wonders of networking and both Win98 and
Linux prove to be quite the task. So..to get to the point...the pre-existing
network has two iMacs (Macintoshes) and a network printer with a static IP
address. Now, I have hooked up my PC into the ethernet hub, given it an IP
address and now sucessfully print to the network printer. Now, the problem
seems to be printing in Linux. I've sucessfully installed Samba, but am
unsure how to set it up to print to a network printer. Since the path for it
would be through Windows, it can never work that way because of dual booting
right? Any help on this matter would be great.
If this is unclear, please e-mail me, and if anyone can offer any help or
links it would be appreciated very much!
Thanks in advance,
Evan Holt
