I am driving a Suse 8.2 linux with cups 1.1.18 and samba 2.2.7a.
The problem:
The host serves several printers via cups. If some jobs are in one of
the queues "lpq -Pprinter" or "lpstat -o printer" shows up
the complete
listing. Fine.
Connected to the same print queue from a Windows (XP/NT/98/2k) box I
cannot see the complete listing. Sometimes I see some of the jobs, most
of the times I don't see any.
Executing "lpq -S printhost -P printer" on the W2k host gives correct
results.
I connected via smbclient to the (samba-)printer, did a "queue"
command
- same result, no or not all jobs are displayed.
My smb.conf (the relevant parts):
--------------------------------------------------------------
[global]
workgroup = UNIKO
netbios name = PRINTHOST
security = SERVER
encrypt passwords = Yes
password server = tricia
time server = Yes
unix extensions = Yes
socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
character set = ISO8859-15
os level = 2
veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/
printing = sysv
printcap name = /etc/printcap
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/tmp
create mask = 0600
printable = Yes
lpq command = /usr/bin/lpstat -o %p
guest ok = no
browseable = No
--------------------------------------------------------------
The problem still appears even if I change
printing = cups
(and yes, my smbd is compiled against cups).
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just guessing. What happens if you remove the lpq command parameter but leave in the printing = cups parameter?

For me it mosttimes works, sometimes doesn't> Executing "lpq -S printhost -P printer" on the W2k host gives correct > results.But only if you have the LPD client access to CUPS enabled? (I mean the "cups-lpd" entry in /etc/inetd.conf...

Thanks in advance.Let's hope it is fixed in 2.2.9 (whenever that is out....)> -- > Regards > Christoph LitauerCheers, Kurt

I tried some (not all) combinations with no effect. -- Regards Christoph Litauer ________________________________________________________________________ Christoph Litauer litauer@uni-koblenz.de Uni Koblenz, Rechenzentrum, http://www.uni-koblenz.de/~litauer Postfach 201602, 56016 Koblenz Fon: +49 261 287-1311, Fax: -100 1311 PGP-Key: http://www.uni-koblenz.de/~litauer/public-key.html
