7 <para>The concept of a "port" is fairly foreign
8 to UNIX hosts. Under Windows NT/2000 print servers, a port
9 is associated with a port monitor and generally takes the form of
10 a local port (i.e. LPT1:, COM1:, FILE:) or a remote port
11 (i.e. LPD Port Monitor, etc...). By default, Samba has only one
12 port defined--<constant>"Samba Printer Port"</constant>. Under
13 Windows NT/2000, all printers must have a valid port name.
14 If you wish to have a list of ports displayed (<command moreinfo="none">smbd
15 </command> does not use a port name for anything) other than
16 the default <constant>"Samba Printer Port"</constant>, you
17 can define <parameter moreinfo="none">enumports command</parameter> to point to
18 a program which should generate a list of ports, one per line,
19 to standard output. This listing will then be used in response
20 to the level 1 and 2 EnumPorts() RPC.</para>
