Subject: printing, last time (maybe)

I have been sitting on this printer problem since a week now and I refuse to give up. I am slowly starting to think I turn stupid.

I hope nobody is bothered by my details. I got HP2100TN printer with SuSE 7.0 box connected as 192.168.1.100(smurf) and I got LPRng/ifhp installed and printing fine. I got Samba 2.0.7 installed and it does work fine for a disk share. I got problem with printer share on Win98 though.

1. My /etc/printcap:</P>

2. My /etc/smb.conf:</P>

5. Samba starts 'cat /var/log/log.smb':

6. On Samba start up 'cat /var/log/samba-log.smb' says:

7. </P>

I installed HP printer drivers locally on Win98 on parallel port and then added port '\\mail\printers'. I then print and file gets spooled:

The file never gets printed though and never deleted.</P>

9. There is no such file as /etc/printers.def on my system. Is that problem?
