HI,
I am having trouble loading Win9x printer drivers on the Samba server. I
can load the NT/2000 driver ok, but when I go to the Additional drivers (in
the printer properties) and select Win 95 or 98, it tells me "The printer
driver you selected is either not compatible with your current version of
Windows, or it may not be available. Select a compatable driver from the
list..." I am using 2000 workstation to do this from... I have also tried
to load the driver via NT 4.0 server without success. Anyone know any way
around this... I am using FreeBSD 4.6 Current and Samba 2.2.6 p1 from the
ports collection. I don't think it is a permission problem because I can go
to my Print$ share and create/delete files from my 2000 workstation. Here
is my smb.conf:
