Hello all, I have a printing problem with NT, Samba 1.9.18p8 and Debian Linux 1.3 (Kernel 2.0.32). I defined a printer share, which works fine with Win95, but it does not print with NT 4.0 SP3 and NT 3.51. After installing the "EnablePlainTextPassword" registry entry NT4.0 is able to browse, connect and use a file system share on the printserver, but it can not print to the same

Hi, while using cups as a print system and sharing all the printers with samba to windows clients, is it possible to 'view' a newly created printer in the browse list without restarting smbd ? (samba 2.2.7) Holger

Hi, following situation: 1) You create a raw printer (called "testprinter") under cups and leave the description-field (info-field) empty. cups will create an entry in /etc/printcap of the form testprinter|testprinter:rm=linux100:rp=testprinter: 2) You start samba with a standard [printers] and [print$] share. samba will expose the printqueue to the clients. 3) You upload a windows

A few weeks ago, I upgraded Samba 3.0.1x to 3.0.14a . After the upgrade, all completed printjobs on all 40 printers stayed in samba's print queue (they were removed from the unix-printqueue). When I installed 3.0.20rc2, everything back to normal. But since the upgrade this weekend to 3.0.20, the same thing happens again: no jobs were removed from the samba printerqueue's. Removing

Hello! I'm using samba with CUPS printing (with raw passthru) for a long time now and it worked very well. But after upgrading my samba installation from 3.0.2 to 3.0.9, the printjobs (sent from XP Workstations) aren't removed from the joblist anymore. Means: the job is printed correctly, but opening the printqueue on the XP machine still contains the job (not only mine, but jobs from

Hello experts, I really did'nt want to, but now I have to understand what's really going on when trying to print. I need to know why the hp 9x0C deskjet printqueue even don't want to open the properties window and sometimes the KXdrivers from Kyocera refuse to print. I can find questions in the lists but no answeres. As there is so much documentation and source code on the one hand

Hi, Working on an login script here for my samba4 servers. I try to get an list of the shares on server with this vb code. Set shares = GetObject("WinNT://SERVER/LanmanServer") For Each s In shares WScript.Echo s.Name Next The code works fine against Windows 2003/2008 R2. But if SERVER is an Samba Server (tested 3.6.x/4.0.10) i get an group not found error. Other this like

That was a good hint! Yes, I've installed SP2, and it realy seems to be the Problem. Now I've checked that on a machine with SP1 - and the jobs from the same printqueue are removed correctly there! -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Samba] Samba 3.0.9 doesn't remove printjobs ?

G'day All, We are using Samba 3.0.6 as a PDC and print server. The OS is RHEL 3.0. I've gone thru the procedure detailed in "The Official Samba Howto..." book and the other HP and Lexmark LaserJet printers work properly using the postscript drivers. However, HP 1055CM Color Plotter works best with the HPGL/2 drivers if the drivers are installed on the client workstation but, do

I can't seem to find an answer or a workaround, and I've received stoney silence on this one. There aren't any answers in the archives (well, I didn't find any in the hours on several days I spent, anyhow). I'm convinced that I can't be the *only* one with this problem, nor am I convinced that there is absolutely no one who can help. Please feel free to jump in with

Hi, although I don't expect any answers (like most of the times) , here is my experience so far: I run a samba printserver for +3.000 hosts and 600 printers with a correct setup successfully. So be sure, everything is plugged in, I tried to turn it off and on again, I RTFM'ed and so on. Here is my most successfull attempt to get the printservice going on 3.5.1 and windows 7 46 bit

Hello, I have a new RH 7.2 installation (kernel 2.4.7-10) with Samba 2.2.1a and I can't print from my Win2K box. I get an "Access denied: unable to connect" error from the printer entry in Windows. The logs don't seem to be helping me. Here's my smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = MYGROUP server string = Samba SMB Server interfaces = 192.168.1.1/24 127.0.0.1/24 hosts

It is possible to see the print queue and via NT4's printer window. Correct? And remove the jobs too, right?

Hi all, I am trying to get decent printer status without timeouts in windows xp (no sp1 installed). When I installed the printer it gave access denied, unable to connect but it printed the test page fine. I rebooted, logged in as normal user and tried to access the printer configuration folder. It took a long while but in the end it gave an ok status on the particular printer, when opening the

Hi, I'we tried posting this before without any luck! I share a printer and some shares on my samba 3.0.2a-debian server. No fancy domain-logon, just plain workgroup connect (smb.conf below). The problem is, sometimes when i choose to print from my XP-pro machine, the printer don't react... The shares work fine, and i read/write from them, but i can't print. Neither cups, samba or

Since we updated to 3.0.6 we are having an oddity that the server IP appears in printer UNCs rather than the IP address. For instance printer \\barbel\grdps appears in the printer status box as "192.168.1.9 on grdps". It still works, but this is both odd and unsightly. DNS forward and reverse is working. It does this on both our 3.0.6 servers. On adding \\sardine\pdfconv print

Jerry, I'm very sorry for this late answer. I should tweak my mailfilters (I didn't expect an answer anymore so I didn't check my samba-mailfolder) That's our situation: - I tried to revert to 3.0.20rc2 and got the error again - I installed 3.0.20 again and rebooted, and the problem went away! (I'm sure that all smbd, nmbd and winbindd daemons were killed before the

Hi: I have a problem with my Samba print queue, I think. I started a print job back in June and the queue seemed to get overloaded. Since that time I can't print to that printer through the Samba queue. Even stranger, every couple of days random pages print out from that job! This has been going on all Summer. I would like to clear the queue and get Samba's printing queues up and

I've been having a problem with Win95 clients watching a printer queue on the Samba server (called labserv2). labserv2 is a Solaris 2.5.1 machine running samba 1.9.18p4. The printing system is LPRng 3.4.2. A user can watch the printer queue from a Win95 client machine. However, when the printer queue gets backed up (usually about 12 jobs), the queue window locks. The corresponding smbd
