1 - when setting up windows file sharing services, you can register the
OSX server with WINS and an entry area is supplied for an IP address.
is
it possible to enter 2 or more WINS servers? the network here runs 2.
Only one from the GUI. Page 24 of the Windows Services Admin guide.
2 - how do I setup & reference a printer queue on Windows?
is it: queue name, or queuename@serverDNSname, or somethingelse
You can browse to it via smb or print directly via LPR. Page 25 of the
Windows Services Admin guide.
3 - there are a number of default users and groups, many for services
we
ar not using (mysql server, WWW services etc) can I safely disable
these?
I would leave them alone. Why would you want to disable them?
4 - can I change the user names on the default accounts? i would like
to
add a character (~) so that all the default accounts sort together,and
away from my 'normal' users.
You shouldn't see the unless you enable WGM to see them. Page 42 of the
User Management Guide.
5 - are there existing apps that will take printer logs, and organize
it
(them) such that I can get a weekly tally of pages printed, and by
whom -
for both specific printers and across multiple queues?
I'm sure there is. Try Googling for CUPS log readers or something like
that...
