Hi [Sambas]
I have RedHat 8.0, and have installed a compiled CUPS 1.1.19pre4 and
Samba 3.0 (latest this week from CVS). It all compiles and installs OK
with CUPS support in Samba, but no printers show up (according to
smbclient -L or from windoze). A reversion to Samba 2.2.8a works
perfectly with the identical setup, including configure options.
Installation and use of printers goes through OK. I assume others have
had success with Samba 3 and CUPS as I haven't seen any problem posts so
far. My ntadmins include administrator accounts for windoze although I
have had hassles with permissions that haven't yet been resolved.
Any ideas or suggestions?
