samba - May 2003 - "lprm command" problem

Hello, 

I have successfully installed samba  2.2.8 
(with CUPS) as a windows printing server using the 
print$ share. The W2000 clients are able to send 
jobs to a printer and view the corresponding 
printer queue.

However, when I try to delete a job from the 
windows client, I get the error "bad command".
My printers share in smb.conf is:

[printers]
  comment = All Printers
  path = /tmp
  create mask = 0700
  browseable = yes
  guest ok = yes
  writable = no
  printable = yes
  print command = /usr/bin/lp -d %p -o raw %s
  lpq command = /usr/bin/lpstat -o %p
  lprm command = /usr/bin/cancel %p-%j

The command "/usr/bin/cancel" works fine in the 
linux server. May the error be due to bad 
replacement of the "%p-%j" string?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

   Manuel Arenaz

They say you should not have any print commands defined in smb.conf when
you are using cups.

Hai,
thankyou for the solution.It seems work fine now.
I edit the file /etc/lprng/lpd.perms with option DEFAULT ACCEPT
I have create a new file "hosts"under /etc.

file /etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.X  octest octest.riedmann.it

I don't receive the message now ( get_local_host ?myhostname? bad ) ,
and the window printing status is working fine.

I have SAMBA compiled without CUPS support.

# ldd /usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd 
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4001b000)
        libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x4001e000)
        libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x40033000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40060000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

I will try to recompile it, and I hope it works.

Thanks,

     Manuel
