windows printer

(while I have been able to print to this printer before it was with a different distro)

after soooo many failed attempts to even see my workgroup I think I'm going to start with noob understanding and questions.

how do I see my workgroup called: workgroup ? (using smb I'm guessing)

in YaST goto:

Network Deices -> Network Card

then click "change" to change the config of your network card

Choose the network card (if like my server u have more than 1) and click "Edit"

then click "Host Name and Name Server"

in the "Domain Name" field, put "workgroup"

i know it says domain name, but this is only if ur on a domain, if not, it'll revery tobeing the workgroup

if that did anything I would be able to tell. is there some gui for samba in suse? or an address for konquer?

Just after u log in, it might tell you the computername and workgroup.

something like:

comutername.workgroup
