there's also a bit of a jargon problem here. You don't really want to share their files/printers. you want to connect to their shared files/printers. If you put the question that way, you'll get generally better responses. Not to disagree too much with 'owensleftfoot' but some client (which are the functions you want) software do look to the smb.conf file. make sure the workgroup is the same as your co-workers. <br />
you can access local cups print (I imaging RH9 uses cups) with a webbrowser pointed at <a href="http://localhost:631/admin" rel="ugc">http://localhost:631/admin</a>&nbsp;where you can create or delete printers<br />
your printer url will be<br />
smb://user:password@workgr<wbr />oup/server<wbr />/printer<br />
If you have several printers<br />
the lpadmin (run as root) will set the default printer for apps that don't access the cups system directly.<br />
