My girlfriend recently decided that she wanted her gui ala windows, so I
had to reinstall it on her machine, so I had to install samba so that she
would have some more disk space. Ive gotten my computer to be browseable
through network neighborhood etc, and she can mount the exported fs etc,
and she can see the printer, but whenever I try to print from it she gets
an error saying to restart windows and try again (isnt that the windows
slogan?) so Im wondering if anyone can take a look at my smb.conf and tell
me what Im doing wrong.
[global]
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
invalid users = root
browseable = yes
writable = no
hide dot files = yes
log file = /var/log/samba-log
security = user
workgroup = SPIFFY
server string = %h server (Samba %v)
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
encrypt passwords = yes
wins support = yes
dns proxy = no
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
[printers]
comment = printers
browseable = yes
path = /var/spool/lpd/lp
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes
create mode = 0700
Ive only included what I believe the relevant sections to be for brevity,
If you need more let me know. Im using debian 2, kernel 2.0.34, and samba
1.9.18p8
Thanks for your help
Nick
