RE: Samba printing: can't print from windoze

["Jason Tesser" <JTesser nbbc edu>]

I don't have a user named guest in smbuser but the windoze computer I am trying to print from is a smbuser.  I can browse the workgroup to my linux box with the printer.  I have home shared.  That works.  So why can't it print?

Ok, next question:  Do you have the samba guest user configured?
