samba - Aug 2017 - Setting SePrintOperatorPrivilege

Thanks Rowland,

Contents of /etc/hosts:

/127.0.0.1 localhost////127.0.0.1 printserver//////# The following lines are
desirable for IPv6 capable hosts////::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback////fe00::0
ip6-localnet////ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix////ff02::1 ip6-allnodes////ff02::2
ip6-allrouters///

and /etc/hostname:

/printserver/


I have changed workgroup name now, and removed the .LOCAL in the end.

I tried to change/127.0.0.1 printserver/  to/10.10.1.18 printserver /in
/etc/hosts, but that did not make any difference. The problem persists.

Does this machine get its IP via DHCP ?
If it does, remove the '127.0.0.1 printserver' line

If not, you need a line like this:

10.10.1.18 printserver.domain.tld printserver  
 
and remove the '127.0.0.1 printserver' line

But I don't think this is really your problem, sometimes you
concentrate on the problem and miss the obvious thing :-(

You are trying to setup a printserver on a standalone server using
tools meant for an NT4 style domain.

Is the windows machine you mentioned a member of an AD domain ?

No, it's static IP

I have put in a line like this:
10.10.1.18 printserver.workgroup printserver

Done

True.
Changing the host file did not resolve the problem...

No. We are trying to set up the server as a standalone printserver, and 
avoid domain settings. The server is intended as printserver on a school 
where they are implementing BYOD. The pupils computers are non-domain 
computers.
