2004-06-07 Thread Troy Davidson
I have searched www.mandrakeusers.org for this solution and haven't found any. If anyone can tell me what I need to be doing or a page that has the answer, that would be great. I have a headless 9.1 server with a printer attached. I want to make this printer available to both Linux and Windows

While I am not completly sure as to how it is done, I know for a fact that you can share printers via both samba and ldap ? Well maybe not ldap, but I KNOW samba works, try searching google.com for printer sharing under Mandrake, using samba to share. Sorry I would help but I am not completly

As I recall it is enabled by default in /etc/smb.conf if not the following should do it for you. I also created a guest account so that my son could print from the basement without me actually having to add him as a user. # NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to #

If you have trouble setting up the print sharing, I see no reason why an A/B printer switch couldn't be used. just change the cableing so each computer is on the "output" end of the switch and the printer is the "input" side of the switch, then label A as Win and B as Linux. I haven't tried

Hi all. I'd like to share a printer between a Linux box and a Windows 98 box. The printer is connected to the Linux box. I need to be able to print TO this printer FROM the Windows box. How is this accomplished? By the way, the Linux box is a dual boot (Windows 98 / Linux). When running Windows
