similar to: CVS and SAMBA UPDATE

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

I've described printer problems with 2.2.2 & Win2k SP2 in an earlier message. At one point, using an earlier version of Samba, on an earlier install, the printing worked just fine. Does using Samba as a PDC for logons from Win2k boxes do anything to effect the use of printers and print shares? Or are the two completely separate and have no interaction or effect on each other? Hal

Hail SAMBA folks, I'm having a little difficulty trying to share files and directories that contain a colon in the filename. With a fairly simple configuration, everything works as expected sans the colon problem. On the client end (in my case, Windows 2000 SP2) I get somewhat unpredictable behaviour. In every case the file (or directory) name gets mangled in an unfriendly way. For

Hi... I got this new server at work that I have to get 100% up and running by tomorrow. It's running Samba 2.2.1a on SuSE 7.3 Pro It's supposed to be VPN - File and Printer Server The printers are: One OCE 700C / CS90 color copier and One OCE 3165 And there is only one problem left.

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

Hello Family, [day 2.5] Well, thanks to "Gerald (Jerry) Carter" there has been progress in attempting to print from my Windows2000 machine to my Linux machine running 2.2.2 to an Epson777 inkjet printer on the LAN with a mini print-server on the back of it. I've now got no more RED "access denied" warnings in my Win2k printer setup screen, there is a GREEN "Status:

Dear reader, A few days ago I have installed Suse Linux 7.1 with Samba. Soon I was able to connect from a windows 98 workstation to the linux machine using samba. After testing I found that the server was functioning great, however when I copy files to the samba share using the windows explorer the performance is about 25% of the performance I get when I copy the same files to the same share

Yes the machine I'm running this from is a member of the Domain. Mkpasswd works just great, mkgroup doesn't.

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?

Several questions really (all on the stable 2.2.2 samba compiled with winbind and acls (and Brandon Stone's recycle bin), with a 2.4.14 kernel along with acls from acl.bestbits.at on a RedHat 7.2 box)... 1) Does anyone know how to stop the security event log on an NT PDC filling up with lots of ANONYMOUS accesses to the Security Account Manager eg: Object Open: Object Server: Security

Hi, Our department has succesfully been using samba as a print server for a host of 95/98/NT4 boxes for some time now. However, we're recently started to introduce ME / 2k / XP machines and are having problems. Basically, under ME, 2k and XP after adding a printer as a network printer, I recieve an error message along the lines of 'Unable to Connect to print queue' , 'Unable to
