Hi all!! We have 2 printers shared via samba with good results. Nowadays, we have the cups postscript driver in the server for windowsNT/2000/XP and it works fine, but i want to put the hp postscript driver as we have 2 hp printers. I put the postscript driver via rpcclient without no problem: rpcclient -U'admin%pass' -c 'adddriver \ "Windows NT x86" \ "printer1:driver: config:help:NULL:RAW:NULL" ' \ localhost It worked okay, but when i wanted to put the hp drivers downloaded from their homepage it doesn't. The error with debug level 3 after some text... is: lsa_io_sec_qos: length c does not match size 8 result was WERR_INVALID_PARAM I 've looked rpcclient manpages and googled a lot, i've looked that all the files i mention in the rpcclient command are in the $print\W32X86 folder and... i don't know!! The rpcclient adddriver command is only for installing cups and adobe poscript drivers? or can i install hp drivers too? Thx anyway!! Xavi

But I would recommend just using a Windows client to upload the drivers. You'll have more hair left at the end of the day IMO. I'm not frowning on cupsmbadd. It's just that some drivers can be a little particular. cheers, jerry ====================================================================Alleviating the pain of Windows(tm) ------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ----- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "I never saved anything for the swim back."
