Subject: [netatalk-admins] printing..

Greetings,
Desired:
print from a PC through a Solaris box running 2.6 & Samba & netatalk to an
Apple Printer.
---Problems:
1. How to make the win clients see the appletalk printers through the sparc4? What entries are needed in smb.conf?
2. How to add a networked postscript printer to the same sparc4? (forget atalk, it has an IP address)
---
Given:
Solaris 2.6 netatalk n-971027 samba1.9.18p8 apples win95's all printers are stand-alone, either IP or appletalk.
------------------------------------------------------------------
any shortcuts?
I can make (on the solaris box) this work for text files:
cat file.name | psf | pap -p PRINTER_NAME:LaserWriter
So alls thats needed is to tie all the pieces together, and sysv printing seems to be standing in the way.
ideas?
pat :)
