Hi Here the problem. I am using samba 2.0.10 on sparc Solaris 8 platform in a Nis env. Currently we have about 100 or so printers listed in printers.conf nis map, these printers cover our 5 sites which all use the same nis env. Each site has one Domain master, and a local master on any separate subnets, as not all is in the same domain. When ours users log into a samba server they are

hi Jerry et al, when I use the 'ADD PRINTER WIZARD' it looks like this: ----------------------------------------- |[]\\whatevernthost\mydeskjetanywhere | |[]\\computeronmydesk\printernexttome | |[]\\Ididn'tevennowIm\sharingaprinter | |+[]SAMBAPRINTSERVER | ----------------------------------------- The shared printers on the SAMBA server get visible by

Hi, I tried to upgrade samba on a Linux from 2.2.8a to 3.0.0, and after the upgrade the printer sharing fails. I would like to participate in the search for the bug (if it is a bug), but I don't know how to start. If this is not a bug I would like to know why not, and how to work around, that the printer does not work with the attached smb.conf, while it works with samba version 2.2.8a

Recently I successfully setup samba as a print server to some networked Lexmark Optra S 1855, which went without problems. However a month later Ive try to add one of these printers to an NT4 workstation, now I get accessed denied and the Samba printer port is no longer available. It maybe a simple case of incorrect permissions , any clues on where I should look ? # NOTE: If you have a BSD-style

I've been experiencing a problem with the automatic printer driver download function described in printer_driver2.html under Samba 2.2.5 on Red Hat 7.2. I believe that I have followed the doc correctly and in fact the driver uploads/downloads seem to work if I use a small driver set (like the Apple Laserwriter v23.0) that comes with Windows NT 4.0. The problem is that I cannot seem to

Good day good people, I have troubble with printing. I have samba 3.0.14a-Debian, on Debian Stable Sarge. There is my smb.conf # Global parameters [global] dos charset = CP852 unix charset = ISO8859-2 workgroup = IRIXAS server string = Samba Irix a.s. null passwords = Yes obey pam restrictions = Yes pam password change = Yes passwd

This is puzzling me (and hampering some work, slightly): NT4SP6 + full updates server, with some printers attached.

Hi, Problem: Out of the blue Vista on my laptop decides it doesn't want to mount a share over PPTP VPN connection. I can mount the share in the local network but I can't do it over VPN. When trying to access the server, using "net view \\172.16.1.71" it shows the error in the subject. Platform/Versions: OS: Sun Solaris 10 11/06 release Samba version:

Hi, we are trying to set printer properties with the prnadmin.dll from the windows 2000 resource kit. The printers are shared by a samba 2.2.8a, spoolingsystem is Cups. We are using the windows drivers to process the job, the queues are set as raw-queues on cups. For some models[1] setting the properties via a dumped file works without any Problems. For some other printermodels[2] it

I've been using samba for sharing files on my Linux box. This works quite well, but I'm having some problems accessing a share on my Win2k box: pink:/home/miller/samba/bin# smbclient -L hyperion added interface ip=192.168.1.3 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 timeout connecting to 192.168.1.2:139 Connection to hyperion failed (BTW, nmblookup hyperion fails, yet smbclient resolves

Hi Gang! I've recently set up a TAO Linux box, which has SAmba 3.0.2 and Cups 1.1.17. I have a Lexmark Optra Color 40 Postscript inkjet printer directly attached to the parallel port, and working. After considerable pain I was able to get XP Home to print to that printer (using the 15 step method, as the simple method kept refusing to work). Now I'm trying to get Windoze 98 to print to

I'm having a problem with a Samba PDC box that only lets users who are defined by "admin users =" to print to any of the printers. As an interim solution I just threw my @staff group in there, but of course this lets everyone access everyone elses files :) Here is one of my printer configs: As you can see, I tried to set every flag I could think of to let anyone write to this.

I've set up the automatic driver download as per the instructions in the Official Samba-3 HOWTO. The printers are browseable on the Samba/CUPS server (named Venus in this case), however, when I try to connect to the printer via a Windows 2000 or XP machine, I get an error: "The server on which the printer resides does not have the correct printer driver installed.

You need to add a semicolon and then the command rm %s to the end of your print command.

I have set up a Samba server to act as our lab's print server for a bunch of NT clients. It works quite well, except for one thing. Nobody can control the print queue from Windows. When a job is sent, it never shows up in the Windows print queue window, even when there are lots of other jobs ahead of it. Using lpq under Linux shows the jobs just fine. Lprm et al work perfectly too. So I assume
