Hi all,
I'm running Debian/stable with Samba 3.0.2a and Cups 1.1.20final-12
both from backports.org and have the following smb.conf file:
[global]
workgroup = PermaCorp
server string = %h server (Samba %v)
########## Printing ##########
load printers = yes
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
#### Debugging/Accounting ####
log level = 3
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 1000
syslog = 0
panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /tmp
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = no
guest ok = yes
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /var/lib/samba/printers
browseable = yes
read only = yes
guest ok = yes
Yet I can't seem to browse any printers on my Samba server?
The W2K system I'm using can see the Samba system, but gets asked for
a username and password when I try to browse it's "shares".
I have CUPS installed, and Samba is compiled against libcups.so.2:
# ldd `which smbd` | grep cups
libcups.so.2 => /usr/lib/libcups.so.2 (0x400c5000)
All I want to do is share out my printers from the CUPS server to
Windows. There's no need for passwords or accounts, etc. There's no
reason to lock out 'guest', etc. as I'm *only* sharing printers.
Thanks,
