Hello All,

If I want to document my experiences with configuring and getting CUPS  
printers from client-side to work through a FreeNX server, what will  
be the best place to do it?

I am still grappling with Windows SMB printing through FreeNX. I would  
appreciate any help in that direction.

Thanks,
Prakash
