Hello,
I'm working on setting up a corporate print server with samba
3.2.0-2.17 on a Fedora 9 install. I've been able to get the services up
and running and added several printers via the cups interface, also
been able to upload the windows drivers. This all works well, printing
also works well.
The problem that I am running into is that the old print jobs
seem to be getting stored somewhere in samba and i've been unable to
figure out how to turn this option off. I've set the
PreserveJobHistory No
PreserveJobFiles No
options in my cupsd.conf file though this does not effect the queues
viewed by the clients, only the jobs viewable via the cups interface.
Even once the jobs have been manually deleted from the queue and no
longer show up when it is opened up, windows still shows job counts in
the printers and fax folder.
These job counts seem to be getting stored in
the /var/lib/samba/printing*.tdb files. If i delete these the print
count goes back to 0 but will start counting back up as jobs move
through the printer.
My smb.conf is very basic
