Hi,
I just installed Samba on FreeBSD 8.2(AMD64). It works. I installed CUPS and started. I connected it from another computer http://192.168.1.1:631. But I cannot add a printer which is shared in the Windows XP computer.
This is my configuration in smb.conf
...
printing = cups
...
This is my cupsd.conf
LogLevel warn

The printer installed on my Windows XP computer is a Brother MCF6490CW via USB port. Now I want to share this printer to all computers in the local network.
Please help me to configure this situation.
Thanks a lot!
