Oi,

The config files of the Samba 2.0.7 of Mandrake 7.2 are preconfigured
for usage with CUPS, so if you want to use your old config files you
have to overtake the printer-related lines from the new version. In
addition, it is possible that the the 2.0.6 version of Mandrake 7.1 has
no CUPS support compiled in, because that version of Mandrake was still
using LPD as printing system. So even with a correct /etc/smb.conf it is
possible, that your Samba will not work correctly.

I am not an expert in Samba configuration. So I will forward you mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and he can probably help you in configuring
Samba 2.0.7.
