[FreeNX-kNX] Driver for Windows client printing from FreeNX server

Hello All,

I have a printer connected to a Windows XP client through IPP and  
shared. In my NoMachine NX client configuration, I have added this  
printer as a service and made available for the connection to the  
FreeNX server.

On the FreeNX server side, I selected a PostScript printer driver. But  
when I try to print a document through smbspool (I have a compiled  
Samba for 445 port as per instructions from Fabian), on the client  
printer window I see a "Remote Downlevel Document" in spooling stage  
that just sits there without any actual printing.

Though, if I just set CUPS_SERVER to ~/.nx/<SESSION>/cups/cups.sock  
and do "lp .profile", it gets printed just fine.

FreeNX - 0.7.2-1.1
NX - 2.1.0-134.1

Thanks a lot for any suggestions/ideas,
Prakash
