To force guest access to a share, you need both guest ok = yes guest only = yes Otherwise it will try and authenticate you first before dropping you to guest. If this doesn't work, possibly you don't have a valid guest account set. If no account is set as the guest account (on the linux machine) it will use the user "nobody". > -Larry Engleman > The Burgiss Group >

I'm using samba and cups to allow NT/2k machines to print to an HP LaserJet 4000N printer. The printer works fine except for one in house program. In this one program, all the horizontal lines that should be printed are missing. Originally I thought this was a driver problem, but today, for no apparent reason, it started printing the horizontal lines... but only for the first page of each

I am currently using samba to try and replace a windows NT box as the default print server. All is working well except for one printer driver. All drivers were installed from a win2k machine onto the samba print$ share. The problem that I'm having is with a driver for the HP laser jet 4000N printer. The PCL driver works and loads quickly. The PCL 6 driver works, but the properties

I have samba 2.2.5 on RedHat 7.3. I have installed the following patches on samba: Makefile.in.patch ldap_start_tls.patch parse_sec.patch srv_spoolss_nt.patch from ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/jerry/patches/post-2.2.5 Still experiencing frequent windows nt 4 spooler crashes when installing or removing printers from the samba server. If I disable winbind and the clients login as nobody, the problem

I'm currently using Samba 2.2.5 on a Mandrake 8.0 box with cups 1.1.4. I have several printers shared that are accessed from winNT/2k/xp boxes. When I right click on the printer or select printer properties, or go to print from any of those other boxes, the response is slower than molasses. I have an identical machine running WinNT Workstation that was previously our print server. It is

Hello All. I'm using Windows 2000 prof on a NT domain with samba as the PDC. The printer is connected to the samba server via a usb port. I've tried all that seemed obvious to me, and still the same message. Ive made the printer share directory belong to root and group owner every, which has everybody who should print belonging to that group and chmod 770. I've made the printer$

Drivers are stored in the print$ share. Under this share there are 5 folders, each for a different architecture. Under these folders may be some subfolders (e.g. print$\W32X86 has folder "2" and "3" under it). The client goes to install a shared printer and will access these folders and pull out the appropriate file. Drivers are added likewise by going to the shared printer,

Hi, I think that this is more a Samba query than a Cups one, as far as I can tell from the documentation anyway... I am running samba-2.2.5-1 and cups-1.1.16, I have these installed and working correctly... I have 50+ PC's (mixture of WinNT, Win2k, WinXP and Win9x/ME) printing to 6 queues on the server, 5 of these are RAW queues printing via lpd and ipp, and the other is a socket

Hullo, All... I have HPUX 10.20 with SaMBa 2.2.3a installed... All I want to do is make a single share with read only access for everybody, no matter the user people are using, in other words, they don't need to have the user on the server side. I tried to setup, with no success. Anybody knows something? Thanks...

Hi ! I hate to do this but I'm close to get crazy about printing with samba. I have a samba server ver 2.2.5 running as a domain controler. The domain logon works fine, I've created the computer account by hand for testing and it is great. The problem is with printing. I've created the [print$] share all the directories in this share like W32ALPHA, W32MIPS, W32PPS, W32X86,

Hi there. I've been some days dealing with printing problems in Win2k clients, having a Samba 2.2.5 parched with "parse_sec.patch" as a printer server. When I try to print anything, explorer.exe dies. Sometimes dies spoolsv.exe, or sometimes all the system locks (it may be because explorer do not restart). It happens to all my Win2k clients with Service Pack 2, and only when using

Hi, I installed Wine07252005, my printer is EPSON LX 300X, it's CUPS, the name is EPSON9Pin. I tested it with a simple Delphi program and have two problems: 1) If i print using a report builder like RBuilder, it prints quite well, but the font does look good in the print out. 2) If I use spooler to print, like following: if StartDocPrinter(PrnHandle, 1, @DocInfo) = 0 then begin

Hi, I have Panasonic KX-P7105 printer connected through LPT1 port to the "D-link DP-101P+" print server. This printer is defined as raw and I am using it only for printing from different windows clients. Drivers are only on windows client side. On linux side I never print one page. Suddenly, in windows print spooler I can see already printed documents from every user. As

I have encountered a strange printing problem with Samba 2.2.4 running under HP-UX 11i. In the process of investigating a printing problem, I have found that Samba has stopped passing jobs along to the UNIX lp spooler as of yesterday afternoon. When NT/W2K clients print to printers on my server, the jobs are accepted, Samba spool files are created in the spool directory defined for the printer

I hate to follow up on my own post, but here's an additional bit of info: I've tried changing the "print command" setting in smb.conf to log the command and parameters when a job is printed. However, no output is ever logged; it's acting as if the print job is being spooled but the print command isn't being executed. The print command I added is: print command = echo

Hi, In the wine config file there is a spooler section where I can map LPT1: to a command e.g. "|lpr" How can I use this? From my applications I only see the printers from my CUPS. How can I use a pritner like LPT1: Regards, Abdul-Wahid
