h. I just remembered. I had another distro installed when it was
printing from the XP which means the xp has never been printing with ubuntu.

look what I found in my quest to open ports for printing: I found a program
called ufw which is a 'program for managing a netfilter firewall.' And one
of the commands is:
ufw allow 53
This rule will allow tcp and udp port 53 to any address on this

Which is the
the man page just mentioned that if you didn't specify the protocol it
would assume both of them. It didn't mention anything about the 'range'

15 ports. I just realized that they probably meant per issuance of the
command!
well darn! I just read more of the man page and discovered I could just
allow all ports by changing a setting in 'etc default/ufw. But when I tried

as0t1 means you're probably running openvpn or something like it.
As for the subnet mask on the IP in question, that's whatever you set it
to. But it needs to be consistent on your network.

Yes, that is correct. Samba isn't talking to the XP. The Samba log says
Transport endpoint is not connected whatever that means.

Sounds like local firewall rules. If they are on the same lan then try
disabling the firewalls on each endpoint. Or try telnetting on all the
ports used. Are you using an auth system like AD or local accounts?
