I forgot to mention printers. The best way to network printers is with CUPS, even for your Windows machines. WinXP certainly, and I think 2K also, can connect directly to a networked CUPS printer. (If you are still using 98, then you can get a driver from the internet, but I don't know precisely where just now.) The option is "Unix style printer" in the Win printer configuration. Only if you need to connect to a printer installed on a Windows machine will you need to use Samba (I think, I've never tried this from a Linux system). -- The best way to accelerate a computer running Windows is at 9.81 m/s² -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
