I'm afraid I can't answer your question directly because I do not use Samba, but if you search this list you'll find an answer as to how to set your WinXP box as a server for *nix machines and share the printer that way. The Samba interface adds one more layer of complexity and probability for error. Make sure you only allow the specific Linux box IP address to connect to your WinXP box (set it up in the WinXP firewall). If you get no Samba specific replies and you can't find the previous post then ask again and I will spend sometime searching for it. -- Regards, Mick
