similar to: installing printer driver on Samba 2.2.4

When using the 'addprinter command' a Win2K client can add a printer to a samba server. When de wizards is at it's end it first gives a error of 'Access diened' when executing for the second time it gives 'Printer already existed'. This has to do with the following pieces of code : ---- srv_spoolss_nt.c - spoolss_addprinterex_level_2 ----- if ((snum =

Hello all, I've got a strange problem with Samba 2.2.4. I'm able to associate print drivers to printers (raw queue in cups). My clients are able to see that the drivers belong to the printers, and they download them, but as soon as the server reboots, I lose my driver associations and I need to once again specify a driver on the windows end. The Print server was an upgrade from Samba

Hi, I am planning on upgrading our Samba servers to a more current version (presently we have 2.0.6) Just wondering if 2.2.4 is the best version to implement, or if an earlier version would be more stable, e.g. 2.2.3a I ask this question because I've seen a few messages on the mailing lists suggesting errors in 2.2.4, but don't know if these are real errors or just people with a bad

Hi, is this true? Could anyone give countenance to this?! (i didn't have time/possibility to install/configure Samba 2.2.4 properly, so ain't got no chance to try it) Is there any news about when will Samba 2.2.4 be debianzed?

I'm having a couple of problems with Samba 2.2.4 on Solaris 8. First problem - Using gcc 2.95.2, everything comes out OK, but shared libraries seem to fail at install phase. The output indicates that they're non-existent. Second problem - VFS examples, audit and recycle. They build OK, but there are all sorts of undefined references at runtime. Could these two issues be due to the use of

I have 2.2.4 running on RedHat 7.2 and most things run fine. I was printing from Acrobat, but the application does not seem to matter. On some PC's I sometimes get this in my log : [2002/05/14 13:24:39, 0] rpc_server/srv_spoolss.c:api_spoolss_open_printer_ex(72) spoolss_io_q_open_printer_ex: unable to unmarshall SPOOL_Q_OPEN_PRINTER_EX.

Hi All, To clerify the problem, firstly I have to give you some details of our environment.. Linux Redhat 7.3, Samba 2.2.4, Win2000 workstations... We are trying to use Linux servers as file and print servers. Our client are Windows2000 workstations which will use Linux boxes as file and print servers... Problem with : winbindd Signal 11 error Suspect : When winbind starts, it can get all

Firstly, apologies for asking this again, I see that it cause a mail loop lasttime. We've setup samba(2.2.4, no patches) and installed the printer drivers using the methods decribed in the printer_driver2.html. The drivers have appeared to have install correctly, we you right click on the printer share and select properties the relevent tabs for the printer driver appear. However, once

Hi All, I am running a samba 2.2.4 domain controller and since the upgrade from 2.2.3a have been getting the following error messages in the logs. tdb(/etc/samba/secrets.tdb): tdb_oob len 943289144 beyond eof at 8192 Running Redhat 7.2. Anyone know how to fix this / root cause of the problem? I have a domain with 300+ machines so I'm hoping for something non-destructive. Regards Anthony.

All, I down loaded the rpm file from the samba.org ftp site. When I added the DFS entries into the smb.conf I get the following error. [root@phoenix /]# smbclient //phoenix/dfs INFO: Debug class all level = 4 (pid 29288 from pid 29288) Unknown parameter encountered: "host msdfs" Ignoring unknown parameter "host msdfs" added interface ip=172.31.112.90 bcast=172.31.112.255

Hi, I want my Samba 2.2.4 Machine to join my nt-domain. When I try this I recognize that samba seems to use a wrong IP-Adress! I have no Idea where this wrong adress comes from!? Any Ideas? --- cut --- # /usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd -D 10 -j CAD -r bsadpp01 -Uadministrator ... a lot of text ...

Under Samba 2.2.4 (and possibly earlier), smbpasswd (when run locally) only really reads the first 8 characters, as opposed to the full password. Obviously, this can cause mass confusion. :) The fix is pretty simple (I would offer a diff, but this is the kind of thing the configure script should check for...) - under Solaris getpass() will only return 8 characters - you must use getpassphrase()

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

Trying to upgrade from 2.2.3a to 2.2.4 broke our Solaris 8 PDC. We see the following issues: - Compile flag -KPIC is not valid for gcc, does not seem to bread build - Now looks like directory /usr/spool/samba is needed, but not created by install - smbclient -L hemlock fails with login problem: [2001/10/16 10:43:28, 0] smbd/password.c:connect_to_domain_password_server(1295)

When 2.2.4 was released, I updated my cvs and did ./configure and make (no special options). Since I came in somewhat early today and nobody was around I did the make install. Everything ran fine until I tried to load a particular file and I'm receiving the following error and unable to open the file on a network share. If I place the file on a local drive it loads fine. Permissions and

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

It's me again, with the solution to my problems. To get a working BDC, you have to kill samba, delete your secrets.tdb, create a MACHINE.SID and then restart samba. You will have to do this on the PDC and the BDC to have the same SID the the secrets.tdb file. Then machine account are valid even if you move your PDC, or you add a 2nd BDC, as long as you create the MACHINE.SID file before the

I've been having some trouble getting ACLs to work under my Samba 2.2.4 client (talking to my 2.2.4 "PDC"). Finally, I checked the log and realized that it wasn't able to map SIDs to UID/GIDs. Further checking, and I realized that the client never made the request to the server. Here's some output from smbpasswd: smbpasswd -D 4 fred Initialising global parameters
