similar to: Win2k SP2 Printer problem

I have a problem with Windows 2000 (SP2) printing to an Epson C60 on a Linux server (running Mandrake 8.1 and Samba 2.2.2 with Cups 1.1.12). I've scoured the net and posts on Usenet have not yielded any helpful response. I have 2 Win2k boxes and they both respond differently, but neither is printing. I've installed the printer on both boxes. On one I get a "unable to

Hello, ** Please CC replies to ian@ichilton.co.uk as I am not subscribed ** I have a Brother laser printer connected to a linux box running Samba. It is working fine from Win98 workstations, but now I have Win2K on my laptop, I am unable to print. This is because the linux box obviously doesn't have the win2k driver so I tried to install it as a local printer and then change it to a network

I know in some ways the answer is RTFM, but I'm not even sure which docs to read or where they are. I've posted about my printing problem before (Win2k SP2 won't print to my Linux server printer), and even though I've had some suggestions, nothing has worked (after a solid week of trying combinations in smb.conf, I'm close to having to drop Linux and go to a complete

Hi, I'm trying to find out, is it possible to deliver printer drivers automatically for Win2K clients by a samba printer server. Clients are Win2K with SP2. I can see printers shared by samba. Win2K-client says "Access:denied: Unable to connect", unless I configure a shared printer with an option: "use client driver = yes" Samba is running on RH 8.0 and shares work just

I keep getting "Windows cannot copy file \\ssp1\profiles ... to C:\Documents And Settings\..." when trying to log into a Samba PDC using a Windows 2000 SP2 client. Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this? I am including my smb.conf file, below: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = DC1 netbios name = SSP1 server string = Samba Server encrypt passwords = Yes update

I've having trouble getting XP SP2's to join a domain. Whenever I try to join, at the point I'm asked for a user name and password with permission to join the domain, I enter root and root's password, then get the dreaded "Unknown user or bad password" error message. The clients are a mixed bunch with some 98's, 1 Win2K, a few XP SP1 (I know, I know!, but

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

Seasons Greetings to One and All ....Hope this is the right place for this. I have just set up a samba 2.2.2 domain server (PDC) all, pretty much according to the howto's. All is working including the authentication of a win2K/SP2 box, pretty chuffed with all this actually just aquired Linux recently from a magzine. I have one problem, that is in trying to get the win2k box to add a shared

I'm new to linux & samba having just started using each within the last month or so. I have a small LAN at home consisting of 2 win2k machines and a samba file server (2.2.6) on a SuSE 7.3 box. I'm seeing intermittent problems accessing a samba share from each of the two win2k machines and would appreciate any help in solving this. What I see is problems creating a new file or

ok, I have Samba 2.2.0alpha2 (on RedHat 6.2) up and running as a PDC, I can add Win2k machines to the domain and the machine accounts are automatically created. (finally!) Now, my problem is when a user logs off the machine for the first time, their profile is created, BUT(!) it only makes rwx permissions for SOME of the directories in the profile, this is what I mean: [root@samba profile]# ls -l

Hi, I am having trouble getting rsync (v2.5.0 with the latest version of cygwin) to work between my Win2K (SP2) and my Solaris 2.6 server. Both machines are running the same version of rsync. Each time I run rsync, I get the following error: --------------------- C:\rsync>rsync server1:/tmp/file . Terminal read: The parameter is incorrect. rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read

Dear list members, we are running samba 2.2.3a-6 with debian woody. Printing from win98, NT4.0 AND two win2k PC works, but with two other win2k PCs printing is not possible: The following german error Message is displayed in the win2k printer configuration: "Zugriff verweigert; kein Verbindung m?glich" The english translation could be something like this: "access denied; no

Hi, had samba 2.1.?? version and Win2k running for some time and offline folders worked just fine. But recently I installed SP2 on Win2k and did a samba upgrade to 2.2.3 and now the offline folders do not work any more. Everything is fine until I go offline, */CSC/ contains my offline files and everything seems fine, but when being offline I always get access denied messages when accessing

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

Hi there. I've been some days dealing with printing problems in Win2k clients, having a Samba 2.2.5 parched with "parse_sec.patch" as a printer server. When I try to print anything, explorer.exe dies. Sometimes dies spoolsv.exe, or sometimes all the system locks (it may be because explorer do not restart). It happens to all my Win2k clients with Service Pack 2, and only when using

I am running smbd version 2.0.9 and cannot map to a samba share from a Windows 2000 SP2 Server. I can however map from the samba server to the win2k Server. I can also map from the Windows Server to a windows 2000 Pro laptop on the same network, so I know that the server can map shares outside of itself. I can also map from a Win2K pro client and from other unix boxes to the samba server. I can

I have a small Samba 2.2.1a plus Win2k workgroup. Samba is running on Redhat 7.2. There is a networked laserjet 5000 using a static IP which I can print to successfuly from the linux box, and from the win2k workstations via the queue on the linux box. The weird thing is that, on the win2k worksations, if I double click on the printer icon the status of the printer is reported as "Access

I just joined this list, If this has been answered before I apologize: I have a Redhat 7.2 box running Samba 2.2.4 I have a few printers running on JetDirect boxes that I am attempting to print to. I used printconf in Redhat to set them up within the linux box. Everything works fine from the linux box. I set them up within samba (see [printers] below), but when I print I get "Failed to
