Hello, I have a Canon S400 USB printer. It works on my FC-3 box just
fine. Trying to get it to share with a WinXP PRO & Win98SE box is the
problem. I have searched via google & tried many different configs but
none of them work for me.
I can get to the point where both boxes can "see" the printer, but then
I get the dreaded, not allowed, password incorrect. I am using share
level access & both boxes can see their own home directories correctly
(please note that I can not find my FC-3 box, called matrix1 by name...I
have to use the actual ip address) but I can not "connect" to the
printer.
Below is my complete /etc/samba/smb.conf file as created by SWAT. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
