All, I have the following in my smb.comf for printing commands... # NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to # specifically define each individual printer [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no print ok = yes print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq -P%p lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j

Hello all. I have a question about setting up samba to serve windows printing. I have been trying to research this but keep coming up with conflicting howto's. Can someone give me directions to an up-to-date print howto? It would be greatly appreciated as I am stuck on this.

Arne, With regard to your log on script not working, that ususally means permissions issues. Does everybody have permissions for the full path for the log on script? Hope this helps.

I have a Sparc Ultra-2 running Solaris 2.7 and Samba version 2.0.5 Most of the time everything works fine, Win95 & WinNT users connect to Samba shares and work. Occasionally, users report not being able to view the Samba server in which case I have them map a drive manually or do a "find computer". There are times when this does not work. I take a look at the logs

All, The powers that be are going to buy a win2k server that will have a Compaq TL891DLX tape library. I have been trying to get one for my samba box as well. My question is can I back up the samba box to the win2k tape library? I know that you would have to mount the tape library on the linux/samba box, could this be done through samba? IF anyone needs more info, please let me know. Thanks for

I went to RedHats' page and found hardware requirements and it said that the Dell Poweredge 6300 is a supported hardware. Then I went to linuxcare.com and it does not list the machine. Before I look like a buffoon, or continue to, Redhat will run on this machine, right? I appreciate the help.

I need a few pointers for the import of data into Samba. Here is the set up... I will be getting the data from an NT box that is on the same network more or less (they are our PDC and WINS, we are the DNS). I was told that once Redhat and Samba was set up, it was a simple copy and paste. If I have learned anything, nothing in computers is simple. I have about 200 users private folders being

Hi I actually had this same problem when running up samba originally. Check that the user has a valid unix acount and that you have added that to the folder share/valid users section.

looking at the unit tests of activerecord leads me to think the db is completely responsible for auto-incrementing the id field and rails does no magic here. can someone confirm that this is a true statement? that being the case - what is the preferred way to write database agnostic sql for one''s schema since each of the dbs has slightly different syntax for this functionality... does

All, I have scoured the archives and the How-to's and I am still having trouble getting a Win2k to join a samba hosted domain. I have come across different docs saying you need/do not need a root samba account and that it needs/does not need to have the same password. I am lost as to what I am missing. I created the machine account and added the smbpasswd -a -m machine name. I try and add the

I''m having a problem converting a date retrieved from my MySQL database and I''m hoping someone can help. MySQL stores the date/time as this: 2005-03-08 17:00:34.0 and according to my Pickaxe book Ruby stores times as "the number of seconds and microseconds since [...] January 1, 1970". All well and good. Unfortunately, RoR is converting my date to this:

I think my rails app has a slow memory leak that degrades performance over the course of several days. I''d like to get to the bottom of it but in the meantime I''d prefer to just bandage it and force the fcgi library to start a new instance of my app every so often. Is there a clean way to do this? Calling break in the each_cgi loop causes an error. Sending SIGUSR1, which

Sorry for being repetitive, but I have a question. Can Samba be used for 9x widowze machines accessing files, (access 2000, excel, word...) and have them open, add/modify, save files? The files would reside on Samba box and the user map their way to the files. Any thoughts? I appreciate all of you for sharing you knowledge.

Hi all, I have aproblem with Samba copying (unfortunatly I'm new to samba so my skills are fairly limited). I have a sun box (solaris 8) with samba 2.2.2. Copying from sun to a nt server is fast (as good as you would expect) however, copying from the nt server to the sun box is slow (files copy normally, then slow to a complete halt then copy very slowly). We cannot see anything on a

line 212 of postgresql_adapter.rb is return Time.now.to_s if value =~ /^\(''now''::text\)::(date|timestamp)/ i don''t think this will work. in postgresql the field ''now'' is pinned to the SAME TIME for the duration of a transaction. eg. if you do begin transaction; insert into t values(42, ''now''); # sleep one minute

TEST 3 If you get a "connection refused" response then the smbd server may not be running. If you installed it in inetd.conf then you probably edited that file incorrectly. If you installed it as a daemon then check that it is running, and check that the netbios-ssn port is in a LISTEN state using "netstat -a". Note: You have xinetd not inetd on the redhat box. To avoid all

I''ve used mysql for quite some time now. Other than crashing when the partition gets full, I''ve had no problems with it. But I''ve heard great things about postgres and have seen some people say it''s much superior to mysql. So, with a Rails application, is there any reason why I would want to learn/use another DB besides mysql? Any pragmatic benefits?
