The problem is, that I can not use cups on the sending RH9-box. CUPS is installed on the FC3-box and runs as a server for the RH9-box. What is the idea with cups if it is able only to communicate with an other cups-box??? Why is it the only printerdaemon FC3 has??? (Well, those questions did not help very much)

So I have to try SAMBA. How do I set up the FC3-server side including cups-editing (all necessary), samba-server and firewall-editing?
