I'm testing a printserver with Samab/ Cups. Every time I want to upload the driver to samba for printing I get the following error: "Printer settings could not be saves. Access denied" I chmod 777 the driver directory and spool directory. I gave specified the user as printer admin in the share. My firewall is disabled. Why is it still giving me the access denied error? Best Regards, Roland de Lepper ------------------------------
Hi Roland
I recently had the same horrible nightmare ;)
Please do not ask me for any raesons but try the following:
Change the permissions of the driver-files on your windows-system.
Remove any write protection. Then try to upload again.
Good luck!

sorry, but the driver upload didn't worked either. I thought it worked, but
it was the local driver
that was installed and not the one on the printserver.
This is really a nightmare.

Possible reasons:
1) The driver wants to do some initialization which fails. So: which driver?
2) Your might be using and old and buggy samba version.
3) You have no "W32X86" directory in your driver directory
4) You "printer admin" authentication fails for some reason
...
The first thing I'll allways suggest is to call
"Start->Run" from your windows menu and enter
"\\your samba server\print$".
Change into the W32X86 directory and try to create a file or folder.
If this fails, you have an authentication or unix rights issue.
Otherwise you'll have to go further with more details.

Hi Martin,
thanks...this worked.
But...the next problem arise.
The driver is uploaded to the server now. This is good.
I connected to the prinbter via start-settings-printers and added the printer as
available printer
from my printserver.
This all went ok, but when I want to print, the print doesn't come out en I
see the following error
message in my logs:
" ERROR: string overflow by 1 (256 - 255) in safe_strcpy
(NT_STATUS_DISK_FULL opening remote spool
smbprn_00)"
I'm admin on the windows box (domain admin)

I'm really not shure about this, but you might add
LITEONIT.COM+Roland_deLepper here, allthough> read only = no
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
might make the "write list" obsolete.
