>Printer names are taken from the first field in each
record in the printcap file, single printer names and sets
of aliases separated by vertical bars ("|") are recognized.
Note that no validation or checking of the printcap syntax is
done beyond that required to extract the printer name. It may
be that the print spooling system is more forgiving or less
forgiving than <B

program runs at debuglevel 3, so quite extensive logging
information is written. The log should be checked carefully

>The original Samba software and related utilities
were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</P
><P
>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer.
The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
<A
HREF="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/"
TARGET="_top"
> ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</A

release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter</P
