[Samba] Problem uploading printer driver in Samba 3.0.14a
Hi, I recently upgraded my Samba server from 3.0.2a to 3.0.14a running on Solaris 8. I made the assumption that all my printer definitions would be retained including driver information/files as long as the share containing all the files was still there. Although I still see the actual printers in the list of printers, it seems that they no longer know what drivers they use. When I attempt to upload the drivers now, it just seems to hang and doesn't ever do anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Does anybody know what changed between 3.0.2a and 3.0.14a that might explain why it worked before but doesn't work now? My smb.conf # Global parameters [global] workgroup = ENGMCAD netbios aliases = hydra1 passdb backend = tdbsam username map = /usr/local/lib/samba/smbusers log file = /var/log/samba_log.%m logon script = logon.cmd logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U logon drive = K: logon home = \\%L\home domain logons = Yes os level = 66 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes wins support = Yes ldap ssl = no printer admin = @ntadmins create mask = 0755 .... [print$] path = /usr/local/samba/printers write list = @ntadmins, root Permissions on the print$ share directory and all subdirectories are set at 775, owned by root and the group set to "ntadmins" Best regards, Arnold Andrews Sr. Systems Administrator Seagate Technology

[Samba] Problem uploading printer driver in Samba 3.0.14a
Additional information... It seems to hang when tried from XP Pro, but seems to work when done from Win2K. I left the XP attempt running (hanged) and went to lunch and came back. It appeared to have finally done something when I returned to check on it over an hour later. I sure would like to know what is causing it to hang on XP, but for now, I guess my workaround is to use Win2K to upload the drivers. samba-bounces+arnold.o.andrews=seagate.com@lists.samba.org wrote on 07/20/2005 12:02:04 PM:> Hi, > > I recently upgraded my Samba server from 3.0.2a to 3.0.14a running on > Solaris 8. > > I made the assumption that all my printer definitions would be retained > including driver information/files as long as the share containing allthe> files was still there.
