Thread: Order in which things start [SAMBA & CUPS in particular]
after many expletives , hair pulling, able reliably ubuntu server started [with xubuntu desktop] provides file , print sharing windows xp client in vm... 1 catch!
on restart vm see file shares not shared printer.
run "sudo restart smbd" in terminal window , printer becomes visible! [running "smbclient -l <server> -n" before , after restart shows difference without need launch vm of windows]
guess cups starts after samba , hence printer not advertised - assumption getting cups start before samba, problem solved.
questions are...
1) how make cups start sooner [note: i'm noob!]
2) send observation avoided default ave others hair!
not sure .. try reading here sequence of services ..
