[NTLUG:Discuss] Samba Configuration

[Greg Hewett]

I am going to shoot from the hip here and say that you cannot do this with one
instance of samba, but I do think that it would be very possible to to this
with two instances of samba on the same box.  i.e.  one instance has your
shares, and the other instance has you printers.  This would require different
ip addresses for each of them, and there would also be different netbois names.
If you are interested in trying this, I can be a bit more verbose.
