You need samba-3.3.X or greater. 3.4.X does not allow printing under 64 bit clients but 3.3 or 3.5 are good. To logon the domain you will need the registry entries for samba 3.4.X, 3.3.X http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7 John -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

Suggest you visit the samba web site: http://www.samba.org In the right column is a link to the release notes for 3.4.6 I think it says something like: o Fix printing with 64 bit clients (bug #6888). - John T. > > > Moray. > "To err is human.
