Fwd: Re: Using rpcclient to install printer drivers
Hi Jerry Carter and list members, The post below was rejected by the list moderator as too big. That cost me four days and now I am really anxious for positive feedback from rpcclient experts either in the field or at samba.org. It was too big because I included a listing of STDERR and STDOUT from setting debug level to 10 in step #4 of install_printer_drivers.pl. I have trimmed it down by removing some of that trace, but it may no longer be 100% useful in isolating this rpcclient problem. Let me know if more of the trace is needed and I will send it as an attachment.>I am getting a fatal Signal 11 event when I use install_printer_drivers.pl >on AIX 4.3.3 with Samba 2.2.1a so I would like to bring you up to date on >my testing and get some additional advice. > >Here is a quick and dirty summary of what I did, so far.
