Alas, too late I see this thread :) I have written (some months ago) a guide covering the installation and configuration of CUPS+Samba with printing from Windows (2k, NT, XP) clients via the Samba/Windows Network-Interface (the one where you can download printer drivers from the print server). I've sent it to Daemonnews months ago, but they didn't reply. I'll post the links here, and although it doesn't cover apsfilter, I am sure there are a few useful hints and points in there. It's a little outdated, though (not much). HTML version: http://daffit.meownz.info/html/cups-samba/ PDF: http://daffit.meownz.info/cups-samba.pdf All that is based on a writeup of mine in the Gentoo forums, this thread: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=110931 A good guy named Joshua Preston put it all---plus a lot more (CLAM-AV)--- together here: http://sungentoo.homeunix.com/test/quicksamba-howto.html The latter two links contain more up-to-date information and troubleshooting tips, and although they are written for the Gentoo Linux system, it should be no problem adapting the important points to any other Unix/Linux platform, especially FreeBSD.
