Hi Ben,
I checked
http://localhost:631 and did not see any outstanding jobs. I
think that maybe my smb.conf file may not be correct. Here is what I have
in it:
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = Linux-Desktop
server string = linux running samba 3.0.1
hosts allow = 192.168.2. 127.
load printers = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
max log size = 1024
lock directory = /var/samba
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
password server = None
security = SHARE
encrypt passwords = no
dns proxy = no
[printers]
comment = "All Printers"
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
public = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -r %s
use client driver = yes
