Fedora Core 1:Samba 3.0.0-15 trying to connect with Windows XP Pro and Home
Hello All, I am really hoping for some help on this one. I am going through the very basic process of trying to learn Samba and get my home network up -- followed the HowTo verbatim. I have several problems that are show-stoppers. (1) I canft print. I have a hp Photosmart 7150 installed locally on the linux box and it works perfectly when printing from linux. I can see the printer from the samba share in windows and can install and esuccessfullyf print (the job reads gremote downlevel documenth Status: spooling User:nobody) but nothing prints. Lpq says: Photosmart7150 is ready No entries Zero activity on the printers part. (2) I canft access my share. If I try to go to start¨run and type \\agamemnon\data the only option for a username is AGAMEMNON\Guest and its disabled. I could really use some help on this. Thanks for any pointers. I know this is not secure -- just want to prove the concept first.
