Hi,
I have Linux Red Hat 6.2 running on one computer over an ethernet hub 
connected to a computer set up with Windows 98 SE. Samba is set up and 
running on the Linux computer. I have shares setup from the Linux to 
Windows computer and everything works well. I have tried to set up a 
printer from the Linux box to be used through Samba by the Windows box. 
I keep getting a dialog box in windows asking for a password for the 
printer shares. I have tried every password in both computers and then 
some and still it reads incorrect password. Where is the password it is 
looking for. I have the Samba book and it does not mention anything 
about passwords for printers. I have tried documents but I have spent 
hours wading through them and no mention there. I would join a mailing 
list but I have two home computers and I just want to be able to print 
from the Windows to the Linux box.

Can you help???
