I've tried many times to get FreeBSD machine to share it's printer though samba with little success. The other day I was finally able to get the printer visible from my 2000 box and was able to use that Add Printer Wizard to upload the drivers. The files copied just fine, but then my FreeBSD box just went crazy, lots of harddisk activity and then my /usr partition filled up (1.2 GB free).
