There's one NT4 server with a shared HP 5L which the other win2k boxen use for printing. i've read (parts of) /usr/share/doc/en/books/corp-net-guide, and it looks like i *should* be able to use that printer provided the NT box had something called "Microsoft TCP/IP Printing" installed, which it doesn't. what i need to know is: if i add the "tcp/ip printing" service, will it affect the other (win2k) computers? will it be necessary to change anything, or will that change go unnoticed? or, do i have any other options if i want to print on that printer? -- FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE 2:26PM up 7 days, 45 mins, 7 users, load averages: 0.04, 0.12, 0.08 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
