[nmglug] Samba - APW to add print drivers

[Tim Emerick]

I'm having a mental meltdown trying to figure out how to add printer drivers
to my samba server.  I've read and re-read the document "printing Support in
Samba 2.2.x" which is provided with Samba.

Here are the details:

My lan is part of a corporate WAN using their servers for domain
authentication, etc.

Workstations are mostly Win98 but I'm migrating them to WinXP Pro.

Samba server is using RH8.0/LPRng with Samba 2.2.7-security-rollup-fix. 
Samba is running with security=SHARE.  I want my file server to have an
individual password for each share (ala Win98 Share Mode).  The users around
here are too dynamic to keep up with so I prefer a kiosk style workstation
with folks having to remember individual share passwords for access.

At this point I'm not too worried about users adding/removing drivers so the
security aspect is not a concern.  I'm more concerned with being able to
upload/download/delete drivers using the XP APW.  Later I can figure out how
to limit the uploading/deleting of drivers to printer admins (of which I am
currently the only one).

If there are some links to useful samba print server setups using the
server=share and WinXP workstations, I would appreciate any help I can get.

Regards,
Tim Emerick
