[Samba] Howto delete printer driver for only one architecture?
Hello everybody, we have a lot of printers shared by samba, which are still offering the old "version 2" W32X86 style print drivers, though most of our clients have been upgraded to w2k and above meanwhile. Therefore I would like to delete these old drivers, but I don't know how to achieve this without deleting the drivers for all architectures (with rpcclient -c "deldriver... "). It seems that there's an rpcclient command missing from the SPOOLSS stuff. Any hints? If I delete the drivers for all architectures and afterwards add those which I really need, what happens to the configuration data which had been saved to ntprinters.tdb? Will it survive the deletion of the corresponding drivers or do I have to repeat all the configuration? Thank you! Regards Christoph

Browse to the server's 'printers and faxes' folder. Now File -> Server properties and got to the driver tab. You can select the specific driver and architectures there. cheers, jerry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCFVksIR7qMdg1EfYRAoj8AJ4uGbcAGqc9kIGFDawOZUb/pTo+QgCeO+o6 wlYVsXZ2L0wwWHmh8sbEiWc=tTdy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
