I can't seem to get the rpcclient-addprinter to work - grrrrrr It looks like the drivers files are copied correctly and the NT drivers are added correctly but the addprinter command says it's unsuccessful! rpcclient localhost -N -U JOHNSON\\root -c 'enumprinters' shows the printer!! What's going on? I've tried removing /var/cache/samba/ntdrivers.tdb

Samba version 2.2.3a doesn't seem to work with the "cupsaddsmb" program available in CUPS... cupsaddsmb merely runs a few rpcclient commands. The verbose output from cupsaddsmb is printed below. This output is from cups version 1.1.14, but I received the same error from version 1.1.12. On 2 different computers - both clean installs. When run on Samba version 2.2.2, the command

Hi, I am attempting to configure our samba server for print driver download. The server itself was installed from RedHat 7.3 and has been configured to used cups instead of lpd/lprng. After studying the documentation on cups/samba, I decided to try the Adobe driver install. I used the cupsaddsmb program to perform the driver install, which works fine except for the "rpcclient

Hi, I have a linux box on RH7.3 with samba 2.2.5-1 and cups-1.1.14-15. I create a cups printer on to this machine with success, It called lptest? and apparently, when I send a page test it works fine. But now I want to share It via Samba then I putted the different setting in smb.conf . I extracted the different files from the ADOBE POSTSCRIPT DRIVER and I put them in /usr/share/cups/drivers .

Hi all, This is a re-post of a question I originally submitted 10/22. There have been no responses, so I am trying again as this problem has us stalled in our tracks re managing printer drivers with rpcclient. >>I am getting a fatal Signal 11 event when I use >>install_printer_drivers.pl on AIX 4.3.3 with Samba 2.2.1a so I would like >>to bring you up to date on my

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I have a problem adding printer drivers for automatic downloading via samba for windows 2000 clients. Under cups I added my printer and copied the Adobe postscript driver files like mentioned in printer_driver2.html. And when I finally commit: cupsaddsmb -v -U root normal (normal is the name of the printer) And here is the output:

First off I have read the SAMBA 2.2 printer documetation and Samba Printing Documentation for 3.0. And searched the Internet through Google and did not come up with much. Maybe it is how I am doing search I don't know. I had some success using CUPS for Point and Click printing using cupaddsmb command. I could get the print drivers to download on W2K and XP. But, I could not get the the

Hi Jerry Carter and list members, The post below was rejected by the list moderator as too big. That cost me four days and now I am really anxious for positive feedback from rpcclient experts either in the field or at samba.org. It was too big because I included a listing of STDERR and STDOUT from setting debug level to 10 in step #4 of install_printer_drivers.pl. I have trimmed it down by

Hello all, I'm trying to set up an Epson Stylus C62 printer for automatic download of windows XP drivers in Samba 3.0.9. I have the printer successfully set up on my Windows XP machine, and I can print from there without a problem. The trouble is when I try to tell samba about the drivers, it fails. This happens if I use the add printer wizard and if I try to do it manually with the

Hello all, I'm having a password problem with Cupsaddsmb... I was wondering if anyone knew what this meant... I have 2 printers, "Boris" and "Mutt" I get the following when I run cupsaddsmb -v -a mkdir W32X86 put /var/spool/cups/tmp/3c0b9dc42ea72 W32X86/Boris.PPD put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ADOBEPS5.DLL W32X86/ADOBEPS5.DLL put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ADOBEPSU.DLL

Hallo, I'm running a Samba 2.2.5 server on a SuSE 8.1 box. I setup a [print$] share at server pslag, following the documentation. I have a [printer$] share too. Without it, Samba wouldn't export my cups printers for browsing. My config file is like that: [global] : printing = cups printcap name = CUPS printer admin = root load printers = Yes : [printers]

This is puzzling me (and hampering some work, slightly): NT4SP6 + full updates server, with some printers attached. "rpcclient -U admin%pass enumdrivers 2" server gives me a list of stuff like this: [Windows 4.0] Printer Driver Info 2: Version: [0] Driver Name: [HP LaserJet 5Si PCL 5e] Architecture: [Windows 4.0] Driver Path:

Hello, I've encountered a problem printing to a windows print share and am uncertain how to go about resolving my problem. From what I've been able to tell, the problem lies in samba. I've got a fedora 13 box with samba installed and running on it. My goal is to print to a windows print share. I am able to use smbclient to query the print server and get a list of shares and

Hello, been googling this for a while. Read GD's presentation on why printing is such a pain... Anyway, I'm using 3.4.8 on Freebsd 8.1 I've tried a few combinations - best luck is with 3.2.5, but I'd like to move forward a bit. So, I've got the ADS part working pretty good. happy with how that's going. my problem is when I attempt to load printer drivers.

Dear Sirs, I used to asked Andy about PCounter and Samba a year ago. Last weekend I've just tried PCounter V.2 for NT and Samba the latest main brance. Here is the result. I set up 1 NT PDC and 1 standalone NT server (not a PDC, just a standalone). Then I installed PCounter on the standalone server. The standalond server didn't have any user accounts. The PDC did. I could set PAdmin so

Hi As per subject line... Samba 3 beta 3 installed and functional (e.g. appears in browse lists on windows, shares accessible etc.) on SuSE 8.2. CUPS 1.1.18 configured and functional, cups drivers installed.

Hello all, I'm trying to use CUPSADDSMB to add some printer shares.

Hello all, I am trying to get to the bottom of a printing issue with samba-3.0.25b-2.fc7 and cups-1.2.11-2.fc7. I wasn't sure whether to start here or the CUPS list. When left running for an hour or two, the CUPS process will often be left using nearly 100% CPU. At this point, printing and add printer wizard operations from Windows clients over Samba are unreliable. Dialog boxes pertaining

I'm building an new server with CUPS 1.1.18 and Samba 2.2.7a (Both compiled from source) Installed the printer with CUPS and printed a test page with CUPS. Next step make Samba use CUPS. I've used cupsaddsmb command to do this, which completed successful. Running command: smbclient //localhost/print$ -N -U'root%XXXXXXXXX' -c 'mkdir W32X86;put /var/spool/cups/tmp/3e1bf35d1d1f9
