samba - Oct 2004 - polling for options on printing commands

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

For people with print servers:

I'm working on fixing a bug for 3.0.8 and need to know how many
people use smb.conf variables other than the standard printing
vars like %p, %j, etc... in the various printing commands.
Please send me examples if you use things like %U, or %m.
Thanks.




cheers, jerry

Well, you know what buggery I get up to:

include = smb.conf.%m

and in that file (for a machine in room 900):

printer name = rm900_laser

(And yes, long term I think I'll try to get CUPS to handle this one for
me :-)

with LPRng:

        print command = /usr/bin/lpr  -U%U@%m -P%p -r %s

or

        print command = chmod 666 %s; name="`echo '%J' | sed
"s/^.*- //"`"; if [ "$name" = "" ]; then
name="%s"; fi; /usr/bin/lpr -U%U@%m -P%p -J"$name" %s; rm %s

and so on:

        lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq  -U%U@%m -P%p
        lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -U%U@%m -P%p %j
        lppause command = /usr/sbin/lpc -U%U@%m hold %p %j
        lpresume command = /usr/sbin/lpc -U%U@%m release %p %j
        queuepause command = /usr/sbin/lpc -U%U@%m stop %p
        queueresume command = /usr/sbin/lpc -U%U@%m start %p
