Trying localhost:901 will improve your chances. And you are even more likely to see it if you go to ~Yast2 ~Network Services ~Network Services(inetd) in 8.2 and make sure that swat is ON. Might need to do something in /etc/services to enable the 901 port or something somewhere else.

I have been trying to get my printer sharing to work for a while now, and I stumbled onto this thread.
SWAT makes it easier, but I still cannot get my sharing to work.
I can see the printers from Windows boxes, I can add the printer, but it's status is 'Access denied, Unable to connect'
This is the section in smb.conf for the printer:
[epson] path = /var/tmp read only = No create mask = 0600 guest ok = Yes hosts allow = 192.168.100. 127.0.0.1 printable = Yes printer name = epson oplocks = No
What am I missing here? How can I give access to Windows machines to the printer?
Thanks This is what I have:
[print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/drivers write list = @ntadmin root force group = ntadmin create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 [photo] comment = EPSON Stylus Photo 700 path = /var/tmp read only = No create mask = 0600 guest ok = Yes printable = Yes printer name = photo on linux oplocks = No It works on my Epson 700, and the WindowsME boxes on my network can print on it. Note I don't have your line: hosts allow = 192.168.100. 127.0.0.1 -- Frits Wüthrich Pentaxianado
