similar to: printing to shared remote printers (Win95) using lpr

Was having problems getting NT Workstation to see the samba server as the PDC and do domain logins (Win9x does just fine). Then found this comment in Sam's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 hours with regard to configuring a samba PDC: "You need to configure the server to be in user-level security and you must enable password encryption. There is no way around either of these settings."

Newbie question: I have successfully set up a samba server for file & print sharing. What I'm not sure about is how to set up a fax server. Has anyone tried to do this? What all do you have to do, or maybe you could just point me in the right direction. =========================================== Charles Lewis, Director of Administrative Computing Southwestern Adventist University,

<It seems that the print command is trying to find the printer at location 'localhost'. Since this is a network printer it is not at localhost is it?> Yeah, the error messages made no sense to me either! Well, like I said earlier: < The IP address of this printer is 10.1.1.192. I call this printer nero, and have it listed in my /etc/hosts file> Here is a copy of part of my

Hi, I am using samba samba-1.9.18p10 quite happily on a FreeBSD-STABLE system. The printing works (the paper comes out of the printer) but when I examine the printer queue on the Windows machine, it is always empty (even if the printer is offline). By turning on the debugging I saw the follwing output in the logfile: Running the command `lpr -r -s -P kyo /var/spool/samba/mobifi.n23036'

Hi, can I map LPT1: to a command e.g. "|lpr" How can I use this? From my applications I only see the printers from my CUPS. How can I use a pritner like LPT1: now I'm using Wine 1.1.9 Regards, Shanku

When printing from an application in Wine (e.g. notepad.exe) my system used to popup a Linux print dialog (called LPR Options) which was quite useful. A few weeks ago this changed and the dialog is no longer displayed. I am using Wine 1.1.19 but I am sure it happened with 18 and 17 as well. I think it is not Wine version related because on another computer the LPR options dialog still popups

Hi Printing in Samba is done this way: 1) Win 95 / 3.1 / NT uses the printer driver you selected there the same way, as if you would print directly to the parallel port, but insted if sending the data to the parallel port, it is send over the network to your samba server. 2) Samba recieves the data, and stores it in a file on your server. 3) Then, lpr ist called with the file the data was

Hi everybody, since I got printing working with wine 0.9.15 I just upgraded to 0.9.20 on a Debian etch system. I got libwine-cups installed, and I can print from notepad and some other applications, but not what I expected. All I get is a printout that looks like this: %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%Creator: Wine PostScript Driver %%Title: Whatever And dozens of blank

Hi All, I am trying to print from a CentOS 5.3 server to a windows LPD service. After enabling the LPD service on Windows and creating a LPR port to a particular printer when I execute the following command on CentOS server I do not come out. lpr -H winprint:515 -P printer1 file.txt The above command does not exit. Do I need to configure anything on the server to be able to use lpr as a client ?

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

I'm converting my NT 4.0 Print Servers to Samba Print Servers. Which printing system should I be using? LPR, LPRng or CUPS. I would love to have some feedback on the advantages and disadvantages or what the Samba Team recommends as a standard for working wih Samba. In case you need it, my system is SuSE 7 kernel 2.2.16 running under VM on s/390. Thanks, Josh Konkol, CNE MCSE Senior

Im using samba 2.07 from source on a digital unix 4.0e machine. Users are connecting to their unix home directories fine. There are also samba print shares. Im using cups-1.0.5 for the print server but this problem looks like it's part of samba. The authenication is done from a NT server. Ie the global section of smb.conf [global] workgroup = ee-student debuglevel = 3 server string

Hello! We're using samba to manage our HP LaserJet 8000, which is a very fast and high capable printer. So we need the best performance, when we printing. The problem is when samba receive a file for printing it's copying the file to a tmp directory, and after that the lpr is copying this file out to its own spool directory. For example, where a 300M printing job is arriving from a

I know that printing on Linux is somewhat of an art form, but I have a fairly simple problem. I used the following command to configure a networked printer (HP LaserJet 8150): lpadmin -p name -E -v socket://name -m laserjet.ppd -u allow:all - u deny:none This added and enabled the printer, and I can print to it using the print command from within a GUI application and PostScript
