...resume queues with the Windows GUI, as well as pausing/resuming/deleting jobs from the queue list? I was under the impression that using the Samba and CUPS integration, that this would "just work", but not for me so far.

I'm sure you've seen that subject line before.... I can't get Samba (via Swat) to see my CUPS printers at all. I've tried everything I can think of...the single network-connected printer is listed in CUPS and I've added it on the command-line (via printconf-tui). I can send a test page to it from the CUPS web-interface and also through the printconf-tui interface. I can

Hello all, I have setup a Samba NT domain using OpenLDAP for authentication (compiling samba 2.2.3a with the LDAP option). One linux box holds the OpenLDAP server and is also a samba server (local master, software, doc), another acts as the PDC (holds user dirs) and redirect authentication requests to the former. It works perfectly well with an heterogeneous set of machines (linux-samba clients,

I have just upgraded a RedHat 6.2 box from Samba 2.0.10 to Samba 2.2.5 in one of our elementary school buildings because we now have some w2k boxes that must log to the domain. I'm now getting an error on initializing the locking modules when I run smbstatus. I did the upgrade remotely so I don't know yet whether workstations work properly with the upgrade.

Hi I recently tried to install the printerdriver to the samba server (samba 3.0alpha30 on debian) from a windows 2000 client. The APW asked me for a Win2k-server cd for the winnt drivers, although i had them on a disc...which I don't have 2 Questions: 1) does anybody know why the APW will not accept my winnt driver from the driver disc when i comes to install the winnt driver 2) is it

I am running RH8 with Samba 2.2.6. I am attempting to connect a Win2k box to my Linux box. I "see" Linux in Network Neighborhood, I can ping the Win2k BIOS name, and I can ping the Linux box BIOS name. However When I click on accessing linux I get resource not available. And when I run smbstatus I get the following: Samba version 2.2.6 Service uid gid pid machine

I'd like to use the recycle as a per machine recycler using the option 'name = .recycle/%m' (because we just use some usernames without passwords, and not because of the adminstrators abilties, but for a better workflow with a lot of different projects and people working on them.) But if a directory is created the vfs recycle uses the rights 700, and i have found no way around it

I was under the impression that this is a good list. But maybe that isn't the case. I have asked multiple questions and have done tons of research before hand and tried to be as specific as possible. So far I haven't received any answers. All I wanted was information on getting a NT server to accecpt connections from UNIX. The documentation is to clumsy and very hard to read. The

I have been searching through the docs and on the web to no avail. I work at a university and we are moving our fileservers to new hardware. The problem is, nothing seems to integrate Mac's and Win box's happily. We have a large user base using samba already, but when mac's pick up the same share via CAP, CAP creates files to deal with the dual 'stream' nature of files from a

Hi, as I saw someone today pointing to a solution for protected directories in the recycle dir (thanks Ben!), I wanted to compile the modified recycle.c. I'm using Mandrake 9.0, I have kernel-source, kernel-header and all basic development tools installed, including the libtool package; I downloaded the Samba 2.2.7a sources, applied the patch, but I cannot compile the library.

Hello all, we're currently having problems with Windows XP machines that have *very* long file access times for files that are located on our linux-based samba server (samba 2.2.5 / linux 2.4.18). This happens with all kinds of files, with all kinds of programs, including Office97, text editors, develoment environments, etc. Sometimes - the incidents itself seems to be random and is not

I'm still struggling with this, and people keep asking me why the PDF printer still isn't working...does anyone have any suggestions? -----Original Message----- From: David Brodbeck Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 4:09 PM To: 'samba@samba.org' Subject: PDF printing problem - can't find Samba's file? I'm sure this is something simple, but I can't figure it out.

I have a couple questions that I will submit separately. When I have IPchains running I can't get my samba box to show up in network neighborhood, but when I turn ipchains off the box shows up. What rules do I need to add for things to work properly? -- Raymond Norton Little Crow Telemedia Network 320-234-0270

I've seen this issue asked about and asked about in the archives, unfortunately I can't seem to find a real solution only people's theories. The issue involves a 2.2.5 Samba server acting as a member print server in a Windows 2000 domain. I can add printers from the server to clients in the domain and then print. The issue comes when I try and view/manage the print queue from Windows.

Hello, I'm trying to use samba (Version 2.2.3a-6 for Debian) as a DC for a windows 2000 pro network. Everything seems to work OK, except the roaming profiles. Every few days (I haven't locked down a pattern yet) all machines connected to the server loose their connection, and no one can connect again until the server is rebooted. I'm using log level 3, and this is what log.smbd

Hello all, Been using Samba for a looooonnnng time, and with great success I might add. This is the first time in EVER that I've needed to ask ANYTHING regarding it, so easy is it to config and admin. Kudos to the Aussie that wrote it. Even if he initially thought it was Pathworks... 8-) ANYWAY... I've never really been able to use Samba as a print server. For some reason, when

Seriously. I can't afford to be down much longer or I'm going to be in serious trouble. Running Redhat 7.2. Here's the scoop: Cups is installed and running. Samba is installed and running and is sharing files properly to 100+ people. I can print a test page from the Cups web-interface. I can print a test page by "cat foo | lpr" or "cat foo | lpr.cups" no

Hi peoples, I have a Samba Server that has had the same config for over 10 months now (read: never had a problem). Just today, I thought, let's Play with Flash MX, so download I did. Start playing around, and went to test my first movie and it came up blank. Not a flash GURU that I am, I was stumped. Anyway. Saved the flash file to my local C:\ (Oh did I mention the WS is Win2k ;) .. and

Hi, we still have some trouble running a MS Access-database on Samba. We now tried it with v.2.2.6 on RH 7.3 but still we either get no acces on the database simultanously or we run in problems with updating the database. The problem is that we make some changes on one of the clients but the changes are not visible to the other clients until they shut down the database and reopen it. We
