Printing from UNIX to WIN2K

Applications Cybersecurity
1

I've read a few posts on this site about how to print to a WIN2K machine from a UNIX machine. About all of the posts suggest the use of SAMBA.

I'm trying to print from a UNIX box (Sol 8) to a Windows 2000 machine with a printer attached to the LPT1 port.

Is SAMBA the only way?

Is SAMBA hard to configure?

Thanks for your help.

Yes to question 1 and no to question 2.
You can configure Samba eaily with its short config file. ASCII all the way :slight_smile:
Don't you love *NIX.

Thanks for the quick reply. I guess I need to find, install and configure Samba.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Thanks again.
