This is about the best source of information on Samba I have found to date: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/index.html There is a configuration program that comes with Samba called SWAT. Do a 'man swat' to find out how to install it. It is used from your web browser, i.e. Netscape. I have also been trying to use an HP printer off my Win95 box. I can get it to print text, but no luck so far on learning how to use a filter to convert Postscript for printing. Apparently no one on this list has a similar setup, as I have asked this question several times. The smb. conf file is located at /usr/local/etc/smb.conf If you figure it out, please let me know. -- Walter in·tel·lec·tu·al n. Someone who has been educated past his/her level of intelligence. P.S.
