Jim: This did not help. I created an entry for linuxServer that points to 192.168.1.1 and rebooted the machine.
I then went to a DOS prompt and typed: ping linuxServer and it resolved and pinged the linux server OK. I then added the network printer via \\linuxServer\brotherLaser to no avail. Any other ideas?
