Thats how I do it. Mandrake 8.1 box in basement, with canon bjc4300 attached Windows box upstairs with HP2200 attached to it iMac Upstairs with no printer. The windows box exports the HP printer, the Mandrake box exports the both the Canon & the HP (via samba) to the iMac via appletalk. As far as the windows box is concerned, the HP is only shared to the Linux machine, Windows does not even see the iMac, and the iMac does not even see the windows machine. -- Alex http://www.qsl.net/kc2ivl Linux 2.4.18 #5 Sat Mar 9 21:44:22 EST 2002 i686 8:00pm up 22:15, 2 users, load average: 0.71, 0.50, 0.37
