I am the kind of user who blames himself first then looks for solutions and bugs people as an extreme last resort (as in the case of broken fedora 2.6.1 -> kernel that prevents Vmware 3.2.x from working). > This is the first time I've ever heard of this.

Local printing and desktop printing work just fine. But I have Windows NT in Vmware and a Windows 2000 client (other half's work machine) and a Mac running OX X 10.2.x which can't connect. cups may be a very cool replacement for lpd but it is not easy to set up and run in mixed environnement. The docs suck but that is not your fault. The gnome setup interface shows promise but printer sharing does not work as advertised... Sorry.
