similar to: "Parameter is incorrect"

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

Printing seems like a popular subject here lately. ;) I have an Epson Stylus Color IIs which I had connected to my Linux box. It was mapped on my NT box, and everything worked fairly well (except for the print quality--NT drivers for that printer suck). So, I bought a new printer--an Epson Stylus Color 740. I hooked it up to Linux, made the necessary changes to /etc/printcap, and printed some

Well, not like it should. I can capture a printer with the "net use lpt1:" command, but I would really like to be able to print to any one of the three printers in my printcap. NT gives me the error: "The parameter is incorrect". I attached the error message screen below, in .png format. This worked for the last printer I had. All I changed was the printer and the

First off, I don't know if this is password caching revisited with a vengeance or what. It's very inconsistent for the amount of time the share will stay mounted. I *think* the following are the relevant messagess in the log: Jun 23 22:24:36 reliant kernel: smb_trans2_request: result=-32, setting invalid Jun 23 22:24:36 reliant kernel: smb_retry: caught signal And of course, I get the

Running NT 4.0 WS SP 5 and samba 2.0.5a on Linux, 2.2.12 kernel. Whenever I mount an NT share from Linux, it times out after an indeterminate period of time. This has been a continuing problem, the only workaround being to perform something requiring disk activity on the NT box, bypassing the cache (i.e., ls > /dev/null doesn't work, but df does). This must be done on a regular

I don't know who this problem belongs to, samba or Linux, but it's a common one, judging by the responses in my INBOX to a previous post. Plus, it's a fairly serious one; many applications require smb shares to be mounted continuously and without interruption. It's been a recurring problem which seems to have been pushed off to the side as not important, even though it's a

I'm having a couple of problems getting samba to process /etc/printcap properly.

Hi, I don't know how many people on this list use samba with freebsd , but I have a question. I have samba set up and can connect to my other win conputers using smbclient but I am told that freebsd does not have smbmount. i need to mount my win hard drives in order to back them up. Is this possible some way with samba under freebsd. Thanks Rick -- Rick Knebel rknebel@uplink.net

I am trying to allow printing from my linux box to my win98 box, to which my epson stylus printer is attached. It's just not happening...something tells me I'm flirting with a world of pain. I *can* print a file by going: smbclient //rory/EPSON translate print /etc/group but I cannot print from applications, nor can i use smbprint. I tried going: cat /etc/passwd | sh -x smbprint

Hi, I´ running samba 2.0.5a and Linux 2.2.5. After smbmount sucessfully mounted my four nt-shares it lost the connection after 15 or more minutes. I´ve no idea why. The log reads smb_retry: signal failed: error=-3 I can remount all shares every 5 minutes but this doesn´t seem to be a good solution. Anyone who has a fix for this?

Hello, I have a Zip drive on my Windows machine, shared to the network. I can get to the drive through smbclient, but would like to mount it to my main Linux box to do backups. The Zip drive is known as \\mark\d to the network, and I would like to mount it to /mnt/zip However, smbmount is not able to mount it, nor am I able to mount it via smbclient. Anyone have this already working?

My problem is this - I wonder if anyone else has found a solution. I have an NT server & run NT Backup nightly and want to backup my RedHat 6 /Samba 2.0.5 box with it. I can create, delete and read files from those Samba shares, but for some reason NT Backup claims that it does not have enough permissions to backup those files that are sitting in the Samba Box. Would you have any clues how
