Hello!
I've read various information on the web, including the HOWTO on how to
configure Printers, but I am struggling with making my printers publicly
printable. My samba server is joined to a W2K3 domain. How do I
configure it to be printable by anyone, even a user/system not part of
the domain? Here is my current config:
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
# Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to print
public = yes
guest ok = yes
; writeable = no
printable = yes
I'm using CUPS which automatically adds the printer to Samba. I've also
got:
[print$]
comment = Printer Driver Download Area
path = /etc/samba/drivers
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
which I cannot get to work properly. I can upload drivers, when I go
back and look at the page, it shows that the drivers are not installed.
This is less of a problem for me now - I really just want public printing!
I'm running samba 3.0.23a, still waiting on an FC5 version of 3.0.23b
(or maybe 3.0.23c, since that's coming).
Thanks!
Nolan
