How do I set it up?

You add the the printer to cups. (I've always found the cups interface easier to use than yast for this) by pointing your web browser on the linux machine to 127.0.0.1:631 and define the printer via the add new printer link.

You select smb or windows printer as the protocol and give it the //machinename/sharename etc.

- remember to setup a superuseraccount on CUPS using lppasswd (man lppasswd)...otherwise you will not be able to install a new printer using CUPS. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Are you sure your username on that system is not just bob.smith?

I would think Darryl is right. A good way to test whether your windows box is talking is with the smbclient command. On your Linux box just issue "smbclient -U <username> -L <windows host name>" and then enter the password at the prompt. If you have a valid setup and valid username/password pair, you should see something like this: david@nemesis:~> smbclient -U david -L ripper Password: Domain=[RIPPER] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- IPC$ IPC Remote IPC SharedDocs Disk Shared Docs on Ripper print$ Disk Printer Drivers GenericT Printer Generic / Text Only E Disk ADMIN$ Disk Remote Admin C$ Disk Default share Hope that helps..... -- David C.

the bob.smith@company.com is just an alias in this request for help and not the real logon, but in the attempt to connect I am using the real username etc. Phil -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

hi, is there a reason that you fiddle arround with samba settings and do not use printing via ipp, that is supported in any windows client and server from w2k on?

Kind regards Eberhard Only that I don't know how to do it via ipp - can you explain?

Thanks Phil briefly: -you configure your printer in windows and then share it. -you install "internet printing" in windows -you use http://localhost:631 on your linux "client" to add a printer and see there in the cups examples how a ipp queue should look like, afaik yast does this also very nicely.

For a more detailed view of the windows side of ipp printing, this document might be useful. Beware, it is a word document ;-)) : "Effectively using IPP Printing" from Microsoft themselves. http://tinyurl.com/yjm4oq For a more detailed view on the linux side of printing in general and ipp printing in particular, you could have a look here: http://www.cups.org/book/index.php. Lastly, there is also a very good chapter about printing in the suse documentation and a fair amount of information is inside the sdb, mainly written by Johannes Meixner (jsmeix) from suse. hope this helps kind regards Eberhard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
