Hi, I'm a bit new to the whole Samba printing thing and need some help. I am running Caldera OpenLinux with Samba 2.2.4 and CUPS 1.1.10. I have successfully managed to upload print drivers to the Samba server from a Windows NT client. I have then managed to add the printers to several windows clients without downloading drivers to them. This appeared to work fine, with excellent

Hi, I have tried using a raw print queue with no drivers and printed from the windows end. Still Word or other app being printed from dies and no print request appears in the servers logs. Any more ideas? Cheers, Mark. -----Original Message----- From: brucehohl@access-4-free.com [mailto:brucehohl@access-4-free.com] Sent: 21 May 2004 10:27 To: samba@lists.samba.org Cc:

Hi People, I have just built a Samba 3.0.2 server using Suse Standard Server 8 and Cups for printing. Setting up printers and printing works fine for all of the more modern printers, but older HP Laserjet 5N / 4 printers do not. When trying to print to them from Win 2k/XP the windows app that we're printing from just dies, or gives a "do you want to send error report to

Nope, close but no cigar. With 2.2.6Pre2 Word started to behave itself but Outlook acts as though landscape is a foreign concept(i.e everything prints portrait regardless of page setup). Spoolsv also crashes on the Win2K workstations requiring a manual restart of the spooler service. We will downgrade to 2.2.5 and try Jerry's patch. In another message Jerry talks about "running"

I have discovered that many times the virus definitions I use for scanning messages (ClamAV, with the unofficial signatures http://sanesecurity.com/usage/linux-scripts/) are updated some time after my server has received an infected email. It seems the virus creators are trying to race the virus definition creators to see who can deliver first; more than half of the infected messages are found

Hi All, Is anybody succeed to run a configuration on a two node clusters with Samba installed on each machine? I compiled two versions on different directories (/usr/local/samba1 and samba2). At this point, I can run 2 samba's on one node in case of failure but problems are on Active Directory authentication for the Fallback node. Any suggestion! I'm running AIX 5.2 with HACMP and

Are there updated instructions on setting up FTS with solr? I?m in the midst of upgrading my site and the links don?t appear to work or be applicable to current versions of solr. I grabbed 6.3.0 from apache and the instructions are no longer working, e.g., there?s no `solr/conf/schema.xml` file to replace; the `start.jar` has moved, etc. Just wondering if there?s somewhere else I should look, or

Hi all, I have uploaded the printer drivers succesfully on RedHat Linux/ Samba 2.2.4 server. I can download and print without any problems. But when I do Windows API call GetPrinter with PRINTER_INFO_2, the devmode in printer_info is always null. My code looks like HANDLE hPrinter=NULL; PRINTER_DEFAULTS pDefaults; pDefaults.DesiredAccess = PRINTER_ACCESS_USE;

Samba 2.2.7a (built from samba RPM's) with LPRng print subsystem. I've been having troubles with some print drivers which fail to work properly when uploaded to the samba server whether devmode gets left as null or a default devmode is used. Some drivers do not leave you in a position where you can "tickle" the driver to generate a devmode with page orientation etc before

Why is the smb.conf Parameter "default devmode" missing in pretty much any samba documentation like man page etc ?? does someone have a good "official " explaination about this parameter ?

List, I am deploying a number of Samba servers across a WAN. To date I have manually uploaded printer drivers from an XP client to the Samba server. But it's slow, and I systematically upload the same drivers over and over again. I'm not quite sure of the recipe, but I'm sure there must be a way of replicating all the drivers, from a central point, out to the remote servers. Copying

I have a small AD forest of two Windows 2008 R2 domain controllers. I would like to add a Samba 4 DC to this forest. After running into some problems with group policies, I realized that Samba 4 does not currently implement file replication. I would like to have the Samba 4 domain controller replicate user/computer schema with the Windows machines, but I would like for DNS and group policy

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Mostly for print server admins: I am considering marking testprns as deprecated (or just remove it). It doesn't seem to be that useful anymore. Does anyone use it on a regular basis and would therefore be distraught if it were gone in a future 3.0.x release ? cheers, jerry -

I finally got my drivers to upload to the print$ share by using the add_print_package.pl script form imprints, and I was able to attach the driver to the printer created with SWAT (the rpc command: addprinter does not work) by using the rpc command: setdriver. So at this point whenever I connect a client to the machine it no longer asks about trying to find a driver. However when I go to open the

I'm using RH 7.1 with 20011108. Wine is running well with the few simple apps that I use with it. The only problem that I'm having is with printing. I've followed the somewhat conflicting instructions that I've found around the web to use the internal PS driver and at least gotten that much to show up in the dialog box on WinSpice3. However, when I attempt to print I get

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

While trying to solve my printer problem, I have come up with another question that Google is not helping me with. What happens to a print job after Samba submits it to Cups? Is it 'finished' even though Cups is still printing it? Is that why my users aren't seeing their print jobs, because Cups has already snatched them and Samba assumes they are done? I would much rather if

Hello, I am using samba to acces a printer on my Linux server from Windows XP Home SP2 clients. It was working very well until yesterday evening. Since yesterday, I can print from the server (with cups) but I can't print from the Windows clients. And all the shared folders are still OK. There is only printing from Windows clients which doesn't work. We changed nothing on the server

Hello, Im getting the following error when trying to print from Lotus Wordpro, error:winspool:WINSPOOL_GetDevModeFromReg corrupted registry for l"Default DevMode" ( size 8) error:winspool:WINSPOOL_GetDevModeFromReg corrupted registry for l"Default DevMode" ( size 8) Segmentation fault.
