I have setup a basic samba configuration without winbind, using security=user. I have a usermap file that maps everyone to the user ftp. I can see the username being changed to ftp and the user being allowed access. Yesterday I had everything working, no errors in the log. NOTHING has changed from yesterday to today, I know this because I'm the only one who works on samba right now. Today

I made some comments. Maybe the solution is easy. > ##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL > lexmarkz53:\ <---THIS AND LP BELOW SEEM TO BE DUPLICATES. > :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lexmarkz53:\ > :mx#0:\ > :sh:\ > :lp=/dev/lp0:\ > :if=/usr/local/lexmark/z53/z53.sh: > > ##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL > z53-outfiles:\ <----THIS IS THE RAW SPOOL YOU'LL WANT YOUR

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

Hi, Well, my previous attempt to get info on that matter was lame and therefore no one replied. Here is a second attempt. I need info about how to configure samba server and the windows (2000) client to use a printer on the samba server machine. I read the article: http://de.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/htmldocs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html#AEN833 but all I got from it was confusion. I need a

Does anyone have any hints or suggestions on getting some JetDirect-based printers set up for bidirectional printing in Samba? We're using LPRng 3.8.0, ifhp 3.4.7, and samba 2.2.2 From the LPRng standpoint, the printers seem to be set up for bidirectional communication fine.. but how do we get Samba to allow bidirectional communication? Thanks in advance! Glenn --- Glenn E. Sieb,

A couple of days ago I set up my printer on my FreeBSD server and set it up so I could print from my FreeBSD client. This all works very well, printing from botht the server and the FBSD client. However, I also have samba set up for file serving with an XP box. I have been trying for quite some time now to set samba up to enable me to print from the XP client. My situation at the moment is that

Primarily because I've never gotten it to work despite frequent efforts. Offeding printer is a Lexmark Z53 (supposedly fully supported) and when ever I try to add it to an XP box I get "Server doesn't have the right driver, do you wish to upload the driver?" then when I do it says "Cannot connect to the printer. Contact your network administrator yatta yatta

Hello, I have samba set up on a solaris 8 box. I set up a printer using an lpr port. When I send a job from a client through the queue on the samba box to the printer, the job shows up on the printer queue with the job name changed to a generic name such as smb20***. Does any one know why this is happening. Is there a configuration file that needs to be edited to allow the job name to pass through

Is there a way foe me to get the print job name to be something other than "remote downlevel job"? All my jobs are now printing flawless except for this. I would like to be able to get a file name or program at least. Thanks Tony McGrew www.multicam.com

Hi, I successfully setup printing on my FreeBSD box using Samba with apsfilter and lprng. However, I have encountered two issues: 1) Cannot print multiple copies of documents from my windows box (e.g. notepad). Only the first copy is printed and the rest don't get printed. 2) My spool directory is getting filled up and I would like the job removed after the print job is finished I've

I know this question has been answered here a while back, but I have not been able to find the mailing with the posts on it. -----==========----- I have a redhat server that I am using as a file/print server for student use. I am using samba to help the users with Windows. The problem I have is that when using printing a user can submit a print job, and it prints fine, but cannot see the

Hi, I have a RedHat7.3 distro running Samba-2.2.3a. I've never had this problem before 2.2.x versions of samba. I'm using domain security and sharing 2 printers, an HP4050 and Ricoh. Everyone can print fine except that, seemingly randomly, printjobs end up in the queue as paused (according to winXPpro and Win98). Nobody can unpause or delete them. The only way to remove them is to

Hi to all... my problem is the same of the subject... i can`t make to delete any jobs from windows clients , but in the samba server, yes, normally...all the permisions for the share printer are enabled...(i have only this problem with my sama server, all the rest it's perfectly) what happend ????? thaks.....

I am attempting to get printing services for Windows 2000 clients working with Samba on a Red Hat 7.2 box. The problem is I can not cancel print jobs (either from a PC or the local smb client). File sharing, and printing other than this problem, work fine. Here is a listing of configuration and system info: 1) the samba packages installed, 2) output of "uname -a", 3) the

I'm tinkering with this mod to my smb.conf, and can't get the actual filename to be displayed in the printed job history. It's adapted from one Joel put out on the list last year. My impression is that it works for everyone in the world but me.... All that ever shows up is smbprn.yada.yada... in the printer's history of printed jobs. print command = echo %J %p %s >>

Hi, i have the lexmark Z22 printer. If I print a test page through RedHat's printtool in .ps format it works fine, but not ascii. So, i'm wondering how I can change samba so it prints it in a .ps format through the share, I assume that's probably the problem. THX

I'm stuck. I have Samba running on my Red Hat 7.2 Linux box. I can mount by remote dirctory on the Linux box via Samba. But I can't print to the Linux printer. I have a Linux printer installed and I can print to it using lpr. I have a printer configured in Samba and can see that from the Win98SE box. I've clicked on the Samba printer name and configured a Win98 printer.

Running recent cvs from head branch, attempting to list shares on a machine running win2k. Can anyone tell what is wrong here. It does have several shares including a printer. I can connect with: smbclient /chub/SHARE -U Adminstrator (and get prompted for password) What does the line `NetShareEnum failed' below, mean (Sorry about verbose output) #

Hi, I am on RH 8.0 and samba 2.2.7-1 . Why when I share my printer on my linux my xp client can not connect to it. It can see it in "network neighbourhood" when I want to connect it , the message is : Refused access. Impossible connexion . And On W98 box , a printer connected to this LPR has status to < ERROR > . I know that It's caused by my smb.conf: [global]
