Dear all.
I have a box, running SuSE 8.1 and serving as a print server for windows clients, of cource, running CUPS and SAMBA. Of cource, I have "printing=cups" enabled in smb.conf, and the common [printers] section. , and all windows clients use my CUPS printers well. But i have one problem: I cannot access the CUPS classes unless i specify them explicitly as printing shares in smb.conf. does anybody else suffer from this?
Vitaly, To share my CUPS printers over samba, I had the following in my smb.conf: [global] <snip> printing = cups printcap = cups printcap name = cups [printers] path = /var/spool/samba browsable = no public = yes guest ok = yes writable = no printable = yes printer admin = root [print$] path = /etc/samba/drivers browsable = yes guest ok = no read only = yes write list = root Next I had to add the printer drivers to /etc/samba/drivers with cupsaddsmb, info can be found with man cupsaddsmb. It was a bit of a challenge to get this all working, but once it is set up correctly, it works quite well. Josh
