Well, if you set up the windows box as a unix printserver, then did you configure printconf to print to a remote lpd printer? Also, there is a bug in printconf's share box, if you configure for a smb printer: fill in the form in the form '//server/queue' or '\\\\server\\queue'. Note the 2 slashes for every one slash if you use the backslased version. -- Crutcher Dunnavant, Red Hat OS Devel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> passwd: anoncvs, cvs -z6 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/rhl login cvs -z6 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/rhl co printconf _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
