[Samba] Printing - "lprm command" not getting executed
I am attempting to get printing services for Windows 2000 clients working with Samba on a Red Hat 7.2 box. The problem is I can not cancel print jobs (either from a PC or the local smb client). File sharing, and printing other than this problem, work fine. Here is a listing of configuration and system info: 1) the samba packages installed, 2) output of "uname -a", 3) the relevant parts of the smb.conf file, 4) printing capabilities which work, and 5) more detailed information about the problem. 1) SAMBA PACKAGES samba-2.2.1a-4 samba-common-2.2.1a-4 samba-client-2.2.1a-4 2) RED HAT LINUX Linux pegasus 2.4.7-10 #1 Thu Sep 6 17:27:27 EDT 2001 i686 unknown 3) EXCERPTS FROM SMB.CONF [global] # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name workgroup = WIN # A W2K DOMAIN # server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field domain logons = yes # if you want to automatically load your printer list rather # than setting them up individually then you'll need this printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes # It should not be necessary to spell out the print system type unless # yours is non-standard.

I am able to pause and unpause the print queue. I have not had any problem printing any kind of document in the correct format. 5) MORE DETAILS OF THE PROBLEM. When I try to delete a job, Samba gives the indication it deleted the job. On a Windows 2000 client, after I delete the job and hit Refresh, the job is gone. On the local smbclient, after I cancel the job and type "queue", the job is gone. But in both cases, if I type lpstat -t from the server command line, the job is still out there. This problem can't be specific to Samba 2.2.1a, because I have tried it on a machine with 2.2.7, and have gotten the same results. In troubleshooting, I changed the "lprm command" line to read: "lprm command=/tmp/lprm %p %j". The /tmp/lprm script consists of the following: #### START SCRIPT /tmp/lprm /usr/bin/id > /tmp/lprm.out /usr/bin/lprm -P$1 $2 >> /tmp/lprm.out 2>&1 #### END SCRIPT /tmp/lprm When I cancel jobs, this script should at least create an output file, but it doesn't - which indicates it doesn't get run. As a result, I think Samba is not paying any attention to the "lprm command" line in the smb.conf. Be aware that "testparm" will show the "lprm command" as having the correct parameters (/usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j). I have checked the samba log files, and they are not written to when I try to cancel jobs. I have tried running a trace of the smbd command when I try to cancel jobs, and here is the output. It is only one line long: ### START strace OUTPUT select(1024, [9 10], NULL, NULL, NULL <unfinished ...> ### END strace OUTPUT

[Win4LinZ53] comment = Raw Printer for Z53 path = /tmp create mask = 0700 guest ok = yes hosts allow = 192.168. printable = Yes printing = lprng print command = echo %p %s >> /tmp/junkJ; /usr/bin/lpr -PWin4LinZ53 -J'%J' %s; rm %s lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq -PWin4LinZ53 lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -PWin4LinZ53 %j lppause command = /usr/sbin/lpc hold -PWin4LinZ53 %j lpresume command = /usr/sbin/lpc release -PWin4LinZ53 %j printer name = lp share modes = No There is a file, /etc/lpd.perms, whose syntax is awful.

You shouldn't be hanging on the client side. You might try: Making a queue just for your printer, not the generic %p. Put printing = lprng in the share. Look at the log files for error messages. This would include the smbd log files as well as the printer log files. /var/messages might even contain something. Does this only happen with word?

[Samba] Printing - "lprm command" not getting executed
Joel: At first, I thought I could delete the files. What would happen is the Window client's Printer Status Window would show them as deleted, and after I killed the hung application, the print job would start (after a few minutes delay). Note that the hung application could be Notepad or Word (which were the only two I tried). At the time that was happening, the only entry in the lpd.perms file was DEFAULT ACCEPT. Now, however, I changed lpd.perms to have the following entries: ACCEPT SERVICE=C,M REMOTEIP=172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0 DEFAULT ACCEPT Now I am able to delete documents from the Windows PC, but the application (Notepad or Word) will hang. I have not yet tried the suggestions from your latest email, but I will and get back to you with that information as soon as I do. Thanks for your help. -----Original Message----- From: Joel Hammer [mailto:Joel@HammersHome.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 6:18 PM To: David Neilson; samba@lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] Printing - "lprm command" not getting executed I thought that you were able to delete files but that the client was hanging up?
