    Does one have to install Samba in order to use a printer
    attached to a Linux box from a Windows-2000 machine on a LAN?

    IIRC, I used to print from the W2k machine under RH-7 or 8
    without using Samba, but this doesn't seem possible under FC-1,
    unless I have misunderstood something.
    I can access the web through the Linux box from the W2k machine.
