[Samba] printing with lprng

I use Samba 2.2.3a and lprng, but I do not enforce any sort of security.
The print server is a standalone guest-ready system with a shared temp
filespace.  I have used to auto-upload method of drivers for Win2K/XP, but
can't get auto-upload working for Win98.

Is anyone else out there using samba-2.2.3a and lprng?  If so, were
there any weird tweaks you had to do to make it work?  I'm stumped
here.  Thanks in advance,

Justin.
