Works for me with cups, no IIS or apache or anything else. Just point your windows-network-printer to: http://SERVER:631/printers/PRINTERNAME Mind you, this will require manually taking care of the printer driver, which is lots of work if you have many clients, and which a Windows-based print server (what you get by "Sharing" your printer) tries to save you, and which samba tries to imitate with varying degrees of success. But cups alone _is_ enough for mere printing. -- Didi _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
