I have configured Samba 1.9.18p10 (binaries in Debian 2.1 distribution). I can share files and directories on my Linux box and use them from both Win95 and Win98 clients. I have shared HP Deskjet attached to the Linux box in my smb.conf file. I can see the printer on both Windows clients, I can install the printer (referring to the server) but when I try to print Windows clients say "Network path is not available" or close to it.
smb.conf is as follows
workgroup = WORKGROUP
security = user
domain master = yes
domain logons = yes
lm announce = yes
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd
wins support = no
wins proxy = yes
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
[printers]
comment = All printers
path = /var/spool/lpd/hpdj
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = no
create mode = 0700
[hpdj]
path = /var/spool/lpd/hpdj
printer name = lp
writable = yes
public = yes
printable = yes
print command = lpr -r -h -P %p %s
[homes]
comment = Kotihakemistot
browseable = no
read only = no
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
create mode = 750
