Hello, My samba is working but....... I can share files and printers. Although printing is only possible after I set the permission of the spool dir as follows: chmod -R -g=wrx /var/spool/samba After that printing from clients is possible when restarting lpd it say's: permissions of 'file name' are 0755 not 600 and it is changed accordingly Then printing from a client is not possible What has to be changed to set is right? It must be something simple Thanx in advantage Nico van Elteren Netherlands
It all depends on what spooler you are using... for legacy LPR try setting chmod 1777 on spool directories - I have seen this recommended in several places. setting the sticky bit make it impossible for users to delete each others jobs... I have looked at LPRng a bit and it seems to want 600 [LPRng used a slightly different method of spooling that allows jobs to be sent by a process without running as root...see their docs for more info...] anyone else have ideas? ps>>> nico@net-products.nl 03/21 11:21 AM >>>Hello, My samba is working but.......
