Hi all, I would like to be able to pause a printer shared via Samba from Windows 95/NT workstation. Can it be done? Thanks, Walter Dorciak.

Hello, I'm running samba v2.0.5a and I have some problems with settings users access rights to our Projects share. We have a projects share with project directories: \\XX\Projects\P1 ... P5 and 6 people : U1 ... U6 All users must have primary group "users". I need to set permissions for each Px directory and each Ux user. (For ex.: U1,U2 has rwx for P1/* U2,U3,U6 has

I apologize has been discussed, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm trying configure my samba/debian box to allow printing to a shared printer on a win95 machine. Any help is appreciated.

I have a printer - an HP 1120c - connected to my wife's Win98 machine. Occasionally I would like to print to that printer instead of the HP Laserjet 4+ connected to my Linux machine. Could someone explain a couple of things for me? 1. I am running Mandrake 6.0. When I start printtool, it complains that it does not believe Samba is installed. Why and how do I fix? 2. I ignore the message and

Hi! I've been struggling with this install of Samba 2.0.4b on Linux/x86 2.0.36. All of the client machines run Windows NT 4, SP 3. I'm exporting /tmp as pub, and if I right click in the folder and create a new folder, it doesn't show up until I go to 'view' and 'refresh'. If I delete something, it doesn't go away until I refresh. Why? Output of testparm:

Hi, I've recently set up LPRng on my system in preparation for moving my organisation to a Samba/Linux based printing solution. I have a test printer properly set up, and issuing lpr commands from the command line works fine. I also have Samba set up with domain security and all the file sharing is also working OK. Whenever I try to print a test page to my Samba shared printer, I get the

I have the default installation of samba (2.0.5) that came with Caldera OL 2.3, but it doesn't seem to be starting up properly, nor is SWAT working. When I run the script 'samba start', I get the message "Starting samba: smbd nmbd", but when I check the running processes, only nmbd shows up. Running smbstatus gives me the message "Couldn't open status file

Hello! Is it possible to make printer queues accessable from Windows clients? That is, I've got a printer that is printed on via a Linux server running Samba, but print jobs never show up on the client-side (as far as Windows is concerned, the queue is empty). It would be nice, albeight not vital, if this worked... Thanks! -- / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0x5584BD98 or 'Peter Schuller

The 2.04b rpm for rh60 ships with and installs a config file for logrotate (the samba.log file in the packaging/RedHat section). ===== /var/log/samba/log.nmb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP nmbd endrotate } /var/log/samba/log.smb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP smbd endrotate } ===== 1) I think that the use of "endrotate" is wrong. There is no

I'm running Samba v2.0.5a on a RedHat v6.0 system. This server provides SMB shares to Win98, OS/2 and Linux clients. Everything is running fine with the Win98 and OS/2 clients, but I have a few questions regarding Samba and Linux clients. 1. Is there a way for Linux systems to receive SMB messages? Something analogous to Windows' "WinPopup" or OS/2's "Network

what is the format of this file? what is the best way to access it w/o the smbstatus program? IE: with perl -sv

Hello all - I've got an unusual problem that keeps popping up since samba 2.0, all the way through 2.0.5a. I'm running LPRng on my Linux box with Samba. Both startup fine. Fileserving with samba is fine, but whenever I try to print from any of my clients (Win 9x, NT, doesn't matter) the print job just sits in the SAMBA spool directory. Looking through the LPD logs LPR never gets

I have Samba installed and successfully running on RH 6.1, in a WinNT domain. Here is the part I haven't been able to figure out or find documented after reading the SMB How-To and the Samba manpages: I need Samba to submit print jobs to a WinNT print server, automatically using the user's account and password who is sending the print job to access the NT shared printer. That is, if my

Hi Folks, I recently set up a samba server 2.0.5a on a NetBSD 1.4.1 box. I have (I think) a very simple setup: one share and one printer. The share configured below (tmp) works fine. I can see the printer in the win95 Network Neighborhood, but when I try to print a test page, I get "windows cannot find the printer" on the Win95 side, and nothing on the samba side. With the smb.conf

I cannot get smbclient or smbmount to work from linux -> linux. I'm running 2.05a on Red Hat 6.x servers. I can use NT shares from linux. I can use samba shares from NT & 95. Is there some trick to getting this to work between linux machines?

Hi I have a problem accessing NT boxes which have a service (host) name which is purely numeric, smbclient insists on treating it as an ip number. For example:- /opt/samba/bin/smbclient \\\\06842\\BACKUP xxxxx -U xxxxx returns :- Connecting to 0.0.14.34 at port 139 Connection to 06842 failed I am using HPUX 10.2 and samba version 2.0.4b. Surely it should be possible to connect to NT

I'm having a hell of a time mounting Samba shares under Linux. Both server and client are running kernel v 2.2.1x on otherwise RedHat v6.0 systems. The machine running the Samba (v2.0.5a) server is working great. Directories and printers are easily accessable from Win98 and OS/2. It's Linux as a SMB *client* that is giving me problems. I can easily mount shares from a command prompt

I need some help with getting this NT printer setup with Samba server. I think I have modified all the required files and don't know what else is missing. An outside observation should find the missing link. Here is my /etc/printcap: lp:\ :cm=NT printer :\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\ :af=/var/spool/lpd/acct:\ :mx#0:\ :if=/usr/local/samba/bin/smbprint:\
