Samba error Address Family not supported by protocol
Can you please help with the following.
I have managed to setup my cups HP Officejet printer on a Fedora core 6 print server. I can print successfully locally and on my other linux boxes - the story of connecting with my windows boxes is less favorable.
I have a "successful" connection from printserver (fedora 6) using samba to windowsbox1. my samba server is visible and i can log on with my samba user account and see my printer. I have previously install the cups windows drivers and it appears when I connect to printer on windows the drivers gets installed. However on printing test pages nothing happens. on checking both the smbd.log and windowsbox1.log there are entries regarding "address family not supported by protocol".
Below is an extract from windowsbox1.log
