Office Server: SCO OSR 5.0.6. I'm runing Samba v3.
Home Client: win XP.
Is it possible to run BOTH Samba and VisionFS on the Server? Samba to
map file sharing and VisionFS to do the printer share?
Thanks,

My SWAG is that you can't, unless perhaps you run them bound to different
IP addresses, as the M$ SMB protocols use the same ports (137-139 and
perhaps others depending on what M$ is doing today).

Nope. Unless you tell Samba to use a different port, which means you'll
have to tell Windows to use a different port, which is difficult to
impossible, I should think.

But, why maintain two packages? Why not have Samba do everything?

I previously ran VisionFS file and printer sharing without problems.
Now, Some of my home client logins run VISTA. I've installed Samba and
have no problems with file shares, but I have been unable to achieve
UNIX printer sharing on my clients.
Here is the output of "testparm:"

[global]
server string = Samba Server
interfaces = net0, lo0
bind interfaces only = Yes
password server =
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
printcap name = lpstat
dns proxy = No
printing = sysv
print command = lp -c -d%p %s; rm %s
lpq command = lpstat -o%p
lprm command = cancel %p-%j
lppause command = lp -i %p-%j -H hold
lpresume command = lp -i %p-%j -H resume
queuepause command = disable %p
queueresume command = enable %p

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
browseable = No

[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /usr/spool/samba
guest ok = Yes
printable = Yes
browseable = No

[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp
read only = No
guest ok = Yes

[windata]
comment = Quicken Data
path = /usr2/bakwin
read only = No
guest ok = Yes

See any problems here?

I think you may be running into timing problems with this one in
that the rm may be nuking the file before lp is done with it.

the usual nostrum in such situations is to turn the debugging up
high (Samba support variable levels of debug; the highest levels
eat up megabytes, it seems) and/or run tcpdump.

There is not yet a set of Samba binaries for OSR 5 or OSR 6 to work with
Vista.
