RE: Samba problem




AFAIK NT has LPD server... If not in the default configuration, then in
their "Unix services for NT". I never tried it, thought. I use other
option: I have LPD print server (NOT general use PC, small box with one
ethernet and one parallel port). W2K clients have LPD client support
build-in, and of course Linux machines print to it too. It works, but I
don't know how well it scales up. We have only a handful of machines
here.

To unsubscribe, send mail to linux-il-request@linux.org.il with
the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command
