HELP!!!!! Idiots Guide to Printing.

[Steve Moccio]

Yes, I am running 2.2 as a new install on a new Linux system running
mandrake 7.2.

I have been comparing 2.2 and 2.0.6.

On the server running 2.0.6 when connecting to it - In the initial window I
get all the printers plus a couple of folders - one being the printers
folder. If I go into that folder the printers show up again with a hand.

On the server running 2.2 again the initial window shows the printers and
the printers folder is empty.

Any thoughts?

It sounds like you are running Samba 2.0.x and trying to get
the features of 2.2.  You are running one of the 2.2 snapshots right?
