Yes, I can.
Do you have a line like
printer admin = xyz
in your smb.conf?
Yes I have.
I made some tests with other computers (Thanks GSX server !) And it works, but
with windows 2000 only. Not XP
With 2000, everything works fine...
With XP, I can install drivers that have been installed with windows 2000, but
I cannot install drivers on the server with XP. The "New Driver..." button is
simply gray. (See the procedure at :
http://www.netadmintools.com/art258.html )
