Hi all

I have just discovered that several Linux pc's are somehow
pushing printer shares out to some XP pc's. That is printer
configurations are appearing with "Auto (printer
description) on (pc name)"
within the Printer & Faxes area.

Can some one please tell me how this is done and how to stop
it from the windows end.


Thanks
 
go into folder options and on the view tab uncheck the top option to
Automatically search for network folders and printers.
