Samba, swat and printing

Hi all,

Ok next problem:

I see my printer under windows. I click properties, and windows says "I can't see what printer that is", and lets me install a driver. I choose HP laserject 4P ( which is my printer ) and it installs it nicely. Then it shows me the properties of the printer. I try to print a testpage, but it didn't succeed. My guess is that I did something wrong in the smb.conf. Can someone help me. From what I understand you have to refer to the printers in your printcap file which looks like this at my puter:

I don't want guests to be able to print to this printer. I added this in my smb.conf file:

<b>
[printers]
comment = All Printers
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = no
read only = yes
create mode = 0700
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s
path = /var/spool/samba/print
</b>

I hope someone can help me further here

About the swat topic:
I tried both localhost and my own ip and I got a connection refused.

pmdirs

PMDIRS(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation						PMDIRS(1p)

NAME

       pmdirs - print out module directories

DESCRIPTION

       This just prints out the current @INC path, one directory per line.  This is for people who don't want to parse through "perl -V" output or
       hack up their own calls to "perl -e".

EXAMPLES

	   $ pmdirs
	   /home/tchrist/perllib/i686-linux
	   /home/tchrist/perllib
	   /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554/i686-linux
	   /usr/local/devperl/lib/5.00554
	   /usr/local/devperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554/i686-linux
	   /usr/local/devperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554
	   .

       This also works for alternate version of Perl:

	   $ filsperl -S pmdirs
	   /home/tchrist/perllib
	   /usr/local/filsperl/lib/5.00554/i686-linux-thread
	   /usr/local/filsperl/lib/5.00554
	   /usr/local/filsperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554/i686-linux-thread
	   /usr/local/filsperl/lib/site_perl/5.00554
	   .
