Subject: CentOS-Samba question
My main system is a CentOS 5.1 64-bit desktop with gobs of disk and a couple
of printers attached that work just fine. I have it set up with samba so my
VMWare guest Windows XP can access most of the files and the printers.
But, when I try to connect to the printers from a remote machine that has a
Win98/WinXP dual boot, I can't see the printers at all.
Both 98/XP can ping the host by IP address or by name (I've updated the host
on both and the lmhost file on the 98 boot), but the 98 boot can't see the
network at all, and the XP boot can't see anything on my CentOS box,
although it at least sees that the box is there.
Here's my smb.conf:
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = MARKHOME
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
server string = Samba Server
printcap name = /etc/printcap
cups options = raw
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 50
password server = none
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
wins support = yes
dns proxy = no
idmap uid = 16777216-33554431
idmap gid = 16777216-33554431
template shell = /bin/false
winbind use default domain = no
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S
path = /home/%u
create mask = 664
directory mask = 775
writeable = yes
browseable = yes
[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp
writeable = yes
guest ok = yes
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = yes
printable = yes
What am I missing?
Thanks.

Simple Configuration... Your Global is wrong. This is for sane simple
Printing! Read the samba howto's on samba.org.
[global]
printing = bsd
load printers = yes
[printers]
path = /var/spool/samba
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = no
