I installed samba 1.9.16p11 on a Unix(BSDI 2.1); on my network also exist 
two NT servers and some Win95 and WfWg machines. Here the fun begin:

1.- my smb.config is:

; Configuration file for smbd.
[global]
auto services = chris atoledo
   printcap name = /etc/printcap
   load printers = yes
   guest account = pcguest

[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no
   guest ok = no
   read only = no
   create mode = 0750

 [tmp]
   comment = Temporary file space
   path = /tmp
   read only = yes
   public = yes


2.- I want to print, in a Okidata OL600e printer conected in a NT server, 
from the UNIX server. I use smbprint but dont work, may be I miss 
something, How is the way to this work fine?; The script run well to send 
smbclient with the -N -P options, but i have to give one password(I dont know 
why) and then the printer dont print.

	Here is the entry from my printcap archive:

Okidata:\
	:cm=LaserWriter:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/OKIDATA:\
        :af=/var/spool/lpd/OKIDATA/acct:\
        :if=/usr/local/samba/bin/smbprint:\
        :mx=0:\
        :lp=/dev/null:

3.- How can I see the UNIX host with the network neigborhood in WinNT and 
Win95, this is posible?, if yes can you tell me how?

i will very happy if you can asnwer me.
Thanx by the time you expected reading this, and for the time you take 
answer it.
