The issue isn't ip address vs name either one works. The issue is why am I being asked for authentication information when none is configured on the windows side? I can access the server via smbclient with no issues, but I can't configure a printer using s-c-p because it asks for authentication.<br>

</div></div>Dumb question - what happens if you use the Windows name for the<br>
computer, instead of its IP address? I do not know about Windows 7,<br>
but I know XP does not like it when you use the IP address instead<br>
of the computer's name.<br>
<br>
smbclient -L MARY-XP works.<br>
smbclient -L 192.168.55.33 does not, even though they are the same<br>
machine, and I can ping 192.168.55.33. On the other hand, Samba<br>
servers will accept either form.<br>
