  Working on that.  Seems set up OK on the Linux box (or rather, 
I get no errors from testparm), so I guess I just have to set up 
W2k.

  Of course, this install of my printer in Linux winds up with 
the wrong driver -- in spite of my having chosen the right one, & 
when I'd installed cups (this time) I can't open the gui.  
Whatever, I've moved the printer over to the W2k box.
