similar to: troubles printing from windows98 to a samba printer

Dear all, I'm trying to set up Samba as a PDC, and try as I might I can't get that magical "Welcome to the DOMAIN domain" message. V. frustrating! I'm running 2.0.3. I've run through all the DIAGNOSE.txt messages without problems and can access all the shares fine. I've set everything up as in the NT domain FAQ, but still I can't get my box to be part of that

Hi, I had Samba all working, but then I upgraded to samba 2.2.1a and windows from 98 to XP. Printing no longer works, and I don't think guest access works properly either. Probably for the same reason. In windows it appears that connection to the printer is ok, but when you print it goes in the windows print queue and never gets to the linux box. In printer setup it says lp on

Just setup Fedora 7, Samba is sharing files for Windows XP users, Samba is sharing printers too - the user's can add new printers to their XP machines, but when they try to print they get various messages, (Including no message at all) and no printouts. Remote printing can be done by a Mac, using lpr printing. Also local users can print using lpr. Have included my smb.conf file.

Hi Sunmanagers I still have a problem with my samba printing mechanism. When I log on some windows machines it will not print. I have found out that when I print from some machines while the print queu is stopped then the jobs are saved there as root. When I print from other machines they are saved as my name. I can print from dos by using echo something > \\server\printer. I can print with

Hi Everybody, I tried to use SAMBA 3.0.7 in Mandrake 10.1 / Kernel 2.6 but It? not working.

I am having a problem with my wife's Win98 box not being able to see or use the printer on our printserver running samba 2.2.2. The printer is using CUPS and I am having trouble getting it configured right. Attached is a copy of the smb.conf for your perusal. Thanks, Rob -- Rob Blomquist Kirkland, WA On the side of the software box, in the 'System Requirements' section, it said

I am having a terrible time with cups and samba. I have a little home network with a print/file server running RH 7.1 and Samba 2.2.2. The best I have gotten to is to have the printer showing up in network neighborhood on my wife's Win98 box, but the printer configuration wizard refused to use it. It was like it did not exist, or the permissions were wrong. But I doubt that could be the

I am having a hell of a time getting a group of Samba servers working together as a domain. My desired setup is to have one Samba PDC (LION) in control of the ANIMALS domain and then have the other Samba file server (HYDRA) join ANIMALS. Simple enough. My smb.conf files are attached. I have added a HYDRA$ machine account to LION per the usual directions. I then follow the simple directions

Hello, I've got a samba/win98 problem. This occurs with samba 2.05a and slackware linux 7.0 and freebsd 3.4-release and samba 2.06. I've got two machines, one a pure 98 machine, the other split 50-50 linux and freebsd. All is looking well, samba is my local master, will always win elections etc. Both machines show up and all is good until I restart samba. At that point no matter which

I'm trying to setup a share on my samba server that will allow me to write to the disk on my windows 98 box. It seems quite simple but I get the access denied error messages whenever I try to create or write to the file. I created the disk on my samba server as a DOS 16 bit file system. Here is my smb.conf file: [global] # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name workgroup =

-- I have been through your diagnostics pages and FAQ, but I don't think it answers my question, or maybe because I am new to this, I just don't get understand.

Hello! I work at a school in Norway, and am experimenting with a Linux box as a server for our Win95 network.
