Hello all, Either the docs or the value in smb.conf.default is wrong. (Or at least confusing).

But it prints fine. In the printer window, under the status column, my samba printers read: Access denied, unable to connect Yet when I print to them they print fine. This is minor irritation, but I'd like to get it resolved. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I set up winbind on one box successfully. Now a friend told me that it might be better to use ActiveDirectoriy (the PDC and all other servers are win2000). What is the difference in both approaches? which is 'better'? I feel that ldap is the more general and cleaner solution. Is that true? My windows-admins will get rid of wins soon. does winbind rely on wins? can libnss-ldap also create

Apologies in advance. I have been using textmate and am getting to like it more and more. The feature that is turning my crank and frothing my coffee right now is "snippets". Wow! Is this ever cool! And if you aren''t using Textmate, give it a try. Anyhow, my snippets are saving me so much time and so utterly wonderful that like other things in my life that are in

I have a Deskjet 690C connected to my machine running RH7.1 + linux 2.4.13 + samba 2.2.2 installed from RPM. I have setup the printer with RH's printconf-gui as a local printer. In local use it works fine. I have the following in my /etc/samba/smb.conf: --<snip>-- [global] security = share printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes --</snip>-- and

Recently, a problem developed in storing IE5's Temporary Internet Files on our samba exported network scratch space. In tracking it down, I found that the Win2k client attempts to set the ACL of the file "Content.IE5/index.dat". However, the this call ends up setting the mode of index.dat to 0407 (-r-----rwx), thus making the file unmodifiable to the user who created it. (This in

Hey, Would anyone be able to point me to info on ACL_REVISION3 specifications? My lowly MSDN and SDK seem to only know about ACL_REVISION2. A file on Win 2000 share has revision 2, same file copied to samba share has revision 3. Context: I am looking at the security descriptor for files under Windows 2000.

Hi, I watched the flickr demo video some days ago and I was impressed of Rails so I decided to test it my self.. I put it on my web server on windows (Apache2/fcgi/Rails1.0).

Hi... I got this new server at work that I have to get 100% up and running by tomorrow.

Hello, I have been trying off and on over the last couple months to get printer drivers installed on the server side of samba. And have emailed the list with copious notes, got nowhere, and gave up. (I realize that is is a beta feature and am not complaining at all: I can live with out it) But; I have a little bit more info after trying to install the printer driver from a client and failing

This may be a glitch/bug/feature unto itself, or it may relate to the problem I've been having with getting Win2k SP2 to print to a printer on Samba. I have just created a new, clean install of Mandrake 8.1. Then I updated CUPS from 1.1.10 to 1.1.11. I updated Gimp-print from 4.1.99b2 to 4.2.0. I am using Samba 2.2.1a, directly from the Mandrake 8.1 install. The printer is an Epson

Dear all, as you already know, it is possible to send short winpopup messages to Win boxes using the command smbclient -M host. If a Win user wants to reply, it should be possible to use the Windows' WinPopUp GUI to reply, but the message gets lost somewhere. For example: smbclient -M winbox Added interface ip=192.1.1.125 bcast=192.1.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Connected. Type your message,

Hi all, I have just discovered docos for rpcclient in 2.2.1a, and it appears that a solution for installing printer drivers on my Samba server may be in-hand. I am furiously reading man rpcclient and experimenting and with any luck, this will bear fruit. I have to date been unable to use the NT Add Printer Wizard to upload drivers and I believe the reason is that in our particular
