similar to: w2k and samba, printer properties hourglasses forver after driver upload + OK

After uploading the print drivers from w2k and pressing OK or Apply... or selecting this printer from the uploaded drivers and pressing OK and Apply, the printer properties window hourglasses and my machine logs fill up with the messages below. The general idea is, it opens the 15 files that were uploaded for the drivers. Then reopens and closes each one, then closes them all. This process

Hi @all, I cannot use this patch in 2.2.5. I patched the source before with parse_sec.patch ldap_start_tls.patch Makefile.in.patch srv_spoolss_nt.patch addform.diff Containes the samba-2.2.5-printing.patch only parts of the above patches? tom

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 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

Hi, I have Slackware 8 Linux Box with Samba-2.2.5 and HP LJ 1200 printer shared by samba (with LPRng). The problemm is: when printing from W2K clients users cannot change print options (like portrait/landscape page orientation, number of copies etc). When printing from Win98 clients all is ok. Could someone help vt with this problemm? -- Sincerely, Elman Efendiyev elman@megacom.com.ua

Hi, we are trying to set printer properties with the prnadmin.dll from the windows 2000 resource kit. The printers are shared by a samba 2.2.8a, spoolingsystem is Cups. We are using the windows drivers to process the job, the queues are set as raw-queues on cups. For some models[1] setting the properties via a dumped file works without any Problems. For some other printermodels[2] it

RH 7.2, samba 2.2.5-1 installed via RPM. Using winbind. I'm trying to see how much remote printer administration is possible from a w2k box, and I'm having a few problems, several are probably related. HELP! Few quick questions first, before the 2 big questions: Not sure if it was necessary, but I put root = myNTlogin in smbusers file. Is that completely wrong/pointless? For the

Hi all, I try to explain my strange Samba problem: I've done a linuxbox with Mandrake 8.2 distro; installed Samba 2.2 packages and two printers attached via parallel port: one works with the motherboard built-in parallel port, the other is connected via a pci parallel port card. Both works fine on win2000 clients (and on the linuxbox, too :); on windows 98 clients, both printers are

Hi Samba 2.2.5, Linux 2.4.9. We're running a small network of half-a-dozen W2K and NT4 clients. We have an NT4 server and have just migrated all our file serving to our Samba server. It's immediately obvious that our W2K clients are now running much slower when accessing files on the Samba server. The NT4 machines are fine. On a W2K/NT4 dual-boot machine, W2K runs ten times slower - no

I am using samba 2.2.5 and cups 1.1.4 as a print server. Everything is working well, except occasionally the spooler service on my user's machines will randomly die. This happens across platforms (2k, NT, XP) and never happened with the same drivers/setup on the WinNT print server that I have just replaced. I've attached a link to my setup file. Let me know if you have any ideas. My

I have heard something about a 'known bug in 2.2.4' so this might already be known. If so, I just want to get confirmation... I have a new samba 2.2.4 running on a RH7.2 box, running solely as printserv. The spoolss printing functionality is working fine: uploading drivers works ok (aside from a few APW quirks if you change drivers). I'm using CUPS as unix printing backend. The

Hi, We're having performance problems with some workstations (XP workstations). The problem we diagnosed occurs when a user right clicks on a UNC link (on his desktop). The popup window only appears after 80 seconds. On another XP workstation (in the same room, same switch ...), it works OK. We have dumped the network traffic from both these workstations, and the result is that from the

Dear community, I'am using samba as print server for w2k clients on a debian system: samba 3.0.7-2 winbind 3.0.7-2 cupsys 1.1.20final+rc It is possible on the w2k-machines to install printer drivers from samba and to print via samba to the cups server. Within the cups server all jobs have the correct username. If I try to delete pending print jobs from w2k something

Hi all, I'm using samba 3.0.3 from the Fedora Core 2 updates 3.0.3-5 rpm, and have configured a simple printer that will generate PDFs for me. I'm following the HOWTO, trying to setup my printer so that my users can use point 'n' print, but having no luck uploading the driver to the printer. Using the add printer wizard and manually configuring the print driver, I CAN print to it

Hello We've been running samba with LPD hooked up to two HP 5SI prionters through a deskject Direct card. Occassionally, it stop working. And the clients get an access deny messages which seems to be meaningless. This usually happens when the printer jam. But it doesn't seem to come back to a stable configuration either with the W2K drivers or the deskject direct cards. THe print

My Win98(SE) Samba clients can query the Samba-exported printer status, but Win2K(SP3) clients cannot. Both clients can actually print documents. I am running Samba v2.2.3a on a Linux (Red Hat v7.3) system. This server makes 2 printers (via a LPR subsystem) and several shared directories available to our Linux, Win98 and Win2K (soon to be WinXP also) clients. From a Win98 client, print

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
