Samba version 2.2.3a doesn't seem to work with the "cupsaddsmb" program available in CUPS... cupsaddsmb merely runs a few rpcclient commands. The verbose output from cupsaddsmb is printed below. This output is from cups version 1.1.14, but I received the same error from version 1.1.12. On 2 different computers - both clean installs. When run on Samba version 2.2.2, the command

Hello all, I'm trying to use CUPSADDSMB to add some printer shares.

I have been using samba 2.2.2 for quit awhile running with security= share in my company. I looked into the /var/lock/samba and found a growing file unexpected.tdb. Is there a way to trim it down while samba is running or do I have to start and stop samba? Is this an expected behavior? TIA Joseph Loo

Dear Sirs. I have here running samba 2.2.4 compiled on Redhat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.17 with ACL support on EXT3 (http://acl.bestbits.at) and winbindd. Winbind works. I can ssh as a NT4 user and use samba network shares as a NT user without username mapping. (no German special characters, no spaces in user name). 1. In smb.conf veto files = /quota.*/lost+found/.*/ doesn't work 2. In

I installed the printer patch on 2.2.4 on my Linux 7.3 box, reconfigured it (I think I did things in the correct order:configure,make realclean,run patch,configure,make,sh.makerpms.sh), created a new rpm, uninstalled the old samba, reinstalled the new rpm, fixed the conf files, reloaded samba and now my printers appear as "HPLASERJET on _smbserver". HPLASERJET is queue name which is

Hi, I'm working on a printing project consolidating a bunch of NT machines with a Solaris printing machine. I'm concerned about the scalability if I increase the number of printers from say 20 too 300. How does it effect the response time for looking up and changing device setting etc. Thanks Gunnar Gunnarsson

Gerald, No worries. This patch is required if your using Rational ClearCase and you don't want everyone to have access to it. It's to fix a brokenness (IMO) within ClearCase, and maybe other programs. Our windows primary group has 10k+ users... I will shoot it off to Rational, so they can provide it to there customers. I was hoping it could be applied to the main tree so I could just

Has any version of Samba been tested for compatibility with the new Windows Active Directory? We will be upgrading our NT domain to 2000 and creating Active Directory. Currently our solaris samba 2.0.7 server is configured to authenicate users from our NT domain controllers. Will we encounter problems with the 2000 upgrade? Thanks in advance, Cynthia --------------------------------- Do You

Howdy! Got a wierd one here.... on 2.2.1a with "nt acl support = yes" I do not seem to have any problems... however, when I do 2.2.2, I get issues with deleting roaming cache in Windows 2000/SP2 on logoff...but, when I set "nt acl support = no" everything is way cool. now on 2.2.3a it does the same thing and on 2.2.4-pre also does the same thing. The issue with this is it

First: From the Windows NT printer properties box, I entered comments, location and other settings - what file are these settings stored in? Second: Thank you Samba developers! I've been working off and on for two days to make printer driver downloading available to my NT Workstations and all the little details that make such a thing happen. Reading the HTML printer driver doc from the

Hello all, i'm testing 2.2.4. it seems winbindd is not working on our system (linux Suse 7.3 s/390) the config is exactly the same as with 2.2.3a, which worked fine. from a windows client i can connect to the samba server, and see the shares. but, once i want to connect to a share, it asks me for a password and won't accept the correct one. It looks as if winbindd stops working then. On

Greetings, I realize many people will never use winbindd, and thus it will likely not get included in /etc/init.d/samba (on my Debian system; your file may vary) by default, so another solution seems in order. It's not as important to be able to start and stop winbindd now that it's getting more robust, but I'd still like something. How are y'all out there in Samba land

I was looking for the latest version of samba 2.2.5-1 for SPARC, Solaris 2.8 if possible. I only see version 2.2.2. on the mirrors and I know I downloaded a packaged version of 2.2.4 awhile back, was this removed due to technical issues or does anyone know of a place to get a 2.2.5 package? Thanks!

I have encountered a bizarre problem upon moving from Samba 2.2.2 to 2.2.4 on our local print server. When a client tries to map a printer, the server does a DNS lookup on the netbios name of the client, and tries to contact that IP address. This can fail in situations where the client's netbios and DNS names don't match, as in a wireless network user. The failure doesn't prevent

I am trying to run Samba 2.2.4 on solaris 2.8 with W2K clients. I have an NT app installed onto the Solaris 8 server which i would like to run off of the mapped samba network drive. When i try to start the NT app it attempts to read a file on the samba drive called .root.passwords but fails (This file can be accessed with notepad). The following is an extract from the samba error log. I get the

Hello, I've just spent the last two days sifting through the archives of this mailing list and although I found one or two references to my problem I've been unable to find the solution.
