I am having a terrible time with cups and samba. I have a little home network with a print/file server running RH 7.1 and Samba 2.2.2. The best I have gotten to is to have the printer showing up in network neighborhood on my wife's Win98 box, but the printer configuration wizard refused to use it. It was like it did not exist, or the permissions were wrong. But I doubt that could be the

Hi Sunmanagers I still have a problem with my samba printing mechanism. When I log on some windows machines it will not print. I have found out that when I print from some machines while the print queu is stopped then the jobs are saved there as root. When I print from other machines they are saved as my name. I can print from dos by using echo something > \\server\printer. I can print with

Hello I have this problem with printing to a HP Laser Jet 4L set up on my linux box which is the local samba server for the intranet. I can only print as root or as a user admin user = thatuser. I need to be able to set a password for the printer and only those users to use the printer who know the password. Or a similar solution. As ordinary user Windows98 says:

Just setup Fedora 7, Samba is sharing files for Windows XP users, Samba is sharing printers too - the user's can add new printers to their XP machines, but when they try to print they get various messages, (Including no message at all) and no printouts. Remote printing can be done by a Mac, using lpr printing. Also local users can print using lpr. Have included my smb.conf file.

Hello All, I wouldn't write with such a trivial sounding problem if I didn't have to - Sorry. I have two machines on LAN 192.168.0. One is a windows machine, one is a Redhat 9 machine. I have been trying to get samba set up for two weeks now. I first installed RedHat 9 with GUI and then reimaged my windows box. Everything worked like a charm and Samba was perfect. Me being

I am having a hell of a time getting a group of Samba servers working together as a domain. My desired setup is to have one Samba PDC (LION) in control of the ANIMALS domain and then have the other Samba file server (HYDRA) join ANIMALS. Simple enough. My smb.conf files are attached. I have added a HYDRA$ machine account to LION per the usual directions. I then follow the simple directions

Hello, I've got a samba/win98 problem. This occurs with samba 2.05a and slackware linux 7.0 and freebsd 3.4-release and samba 2.06. I've got two machines, one a pure 98 machine, the other split 50-50 linux and freebsd. All is looking well, samba is my local master, will always win elections etc. Both machines show up and all is good until I restart samba. At that point no matter which

I am trying to access a samba share from windows 7. The samba version is 3.3.3 on FreeBSD 7.2, The samba daemons are running and I can see the server in my Network Places on the Windows client.

As Gaiseric requested, here is the testparm -v diff of a working and nonworking member server in the NT4 domain. I've tried to align the columns, but it's possible your mail client may mangle them. The only parameter change I have tried is changing 'ntlm auth' to Yes on the the nonworking system. It did not fix anything. Thanks for looking. Dale *# Samba 4.2.14 (working)*

I'm running Samba 3.0.4 with Kerberos 5 v 1.3.4. I'm accessing Win2k shares from the Samba box without a hitch, but whenever I try to open up Samba shares on the Win2K clients, I get a password prompt. If I access the shares via the IP address of the Samba machine, there's no problem. I don't know if this is relevant, but my Win2k PDC is showing the following error on a

I'm trying to setup a share on my samba server that will allow me to write to the disk on my windows 98 box. It seems quite simple but I get the access denied error messages whenever I try to create or write to the file. I created the disk on my samba server as a DOS 16 bit file system. Here is my smb.conf file: [global] # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name workgroup =

-- I have been through your diagnostics pages and FAQ, but I don't think it answers my question, or maybe because I am new to this, I just don't get understand. Well here goes: I have installed samba v2.0.7. I have tested several user accounts (From the NT domain "vortex") with mapping drives from the PC's (running Windows NT) with no problems at all.
