similar to: AW: Printer download - NOT WORKING

Hi, I played around with samba 2.2.5 and cups and tried to get it working. Well everything is fine, but the driver upload to the client WILL NOT WORK. I used the current stable downloads, latest patch for printing, prebuilds from Lars Mueller .... I put together everything. If one has a working samba//cups please tar it and place it on our ftp-server. I don't know what's wrong here

Hey folks. I am trying to set up a cups/samba printer server, and I am having trouble using cupsaddsmb. I isolated the problem to a rpcclient and here is the information I gathered from the various commands. If I delete all the files in "/var/lib/samba/drivers" cupsaddsmb installs the folders and files, but doesn't move the files in to the WIN40/0 folder with the adddriver

hi, my boxes: RH 8.0 with samba2.2.6-2 and cups 1.1.15-10 samba runs ok and cups runs ok.I putted Adobe Postscript Printer in /usr/share/cups/drivers. And when I want to export my Cups Printer with cupsaddsmb, this what it happens: [root@bouffon sbin]# cupsaddsmb -H bouffon -U DOMAINNAME\\root -h bouffon -v infolpPassword for DOMAINNAME\root required to access bouffon via SAMBA: Running

Samba version 2.2.3a doesn't seem to work with the "cupsaddsmb" program available in CUPS... cupsaddsmb merely runs a few rpcclient commands. The verbose output from cupsaddsmb is printed below. This output is from cups version 1.1.14, but I received the same error from version 1.1.12. On 2 different computers - both clean installs. When run on Samba version 2.2.2, the command

Hi I have installed samba-2.2.7a and cups-1.1.18. After reading all the documentation samba provides as well as the cups administrators guide I am still stuck. I have added the printers just the way the samba and cups documentation says. Anyway here is my output from cupsaddsmb, It fails on the last step, so i have run that manually again afterwards with debugging enabled. I believe this to be

Hi, I have tried to use cups and samba together. Everything works great, however I am not able to configure and/or setup samba correctly, that the clients are able to install the driver. To test everything I used a dedicated system installed a fresh SuSE 8.0 and compiled samba (2.2.4) and cups (1.1.14). I only userd a differnet prefix for samba. Everything else is default.

Hello all, I'm having a password problem with Cupsaddsmb... I was wondering if anyone knew what this meant... I have 2 printers, "Boris" and "Mutt" I get the following when I run cupsaddsmb -v -a mkdir W32X86 put /var/spool/cups/tmp/3c0b9dc42ea72 W32X86/Boris.PPD put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ADOBEPS5.DLL W32X86/ADOBEPS5.DLL put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ADOBEPSU.DLL

Hi, printer driver download with W2000/Xp (samba-2.2.7 and cups-1.1.18) and the Adobe PS Driver works fine for our location. But when I try to download a driver with W9X the driver installation widzard starts. Samba logs the following messages... (Cant determine number of printer driver files...) (see second apandix) The installation of the driver works with no error. (see first apendix) Has

Hi, I am attempting to configure our samba server for print driver download. The server itself was installed from RedHat 7.3 and has been configured to used cups instead of lpd/lprng. After studying the documentation on cups/samba, I decided to try the Adobe driver install. I used the cupsaddsmb program to perform the driver install, which works fine except for the "rpcclient

Hi, I have a linux box on RH7.3 with samba 2.2.5-1 and cups-1.1.14-15. I create a cups printer on to this machine with success, It called lptest? and apparently, when I send a page test it works fine. But now I want to share It via Samba then I putted the different setting in smb.conf . I extracted the different files from the ADOBE POSTSCRIPT DRIVER and I put them in /usr/share/cups/drivers .

I'm trying to change my Samba setup from LPD to CUPS, with little success. I've followed [and re-followed] the setup documentation from CUPS and I just can't get Samba to recognize my printer. The catch is - it sort of recognizes it :-( First I added these lines to my smb.conf: ========================================= [global] load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name =

This was the answer to a question posed on the Samba list almost a year ago. The following regarding Windows 98 printer names seemed to get lost: In windows 98, printer name: ---------------------------- > 13 characters: printer offline <= 13 but > 8: ppd doesn't download, can print with adobe drivers <= 8: full functionality I also tried an 8.3 printername: testtest.tst, which

Hello guys, I am having trouble to get CUPS printer share setup properly via samba. The setup was done following Samba-HOWTO-Collection document, Chapter 7 (CUPS).

The actual output is below : ============================= [root@my-server samba]# cupsaddsmb -v -U johnny -a Password for

hi list, We got the following problem: We try to use samba 2.2.5 as a printserver for windoze clients (samba 2.2.5 on RH linux 8 w/ CUPS 1.1.15). CUPS works w/o any problems, but when we try to generate the drivers for the windoze clients (by using cupsaddsmb), we get the following error: >> cli_pipe: return critical error.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I have a problem adding printer drivers for automatic downloading via samba for windows 2000 clients. Under cups I added my printer and copied the Adobe postscript driver files like mentioned in printer_driver2.html. And when I finally commit: cupsaddsmb -v -U root normal (normal is the name of the printer) And here is the output:

I can't seem to get the rpcclient-addprinter to work - grrrrrr It looks like the drivers files are copied correctly and the NT drivers are added correctly but the addprinter command says it's unsuccessful! rpcclient localhost -N -U JOHNSON\\root -c 'enumprinters' shows the printer!! What's going on? I've tried removing /var/cache/samba/ntdrivers.tdb

We're using Cups and Samba with Adobe Postscript Drivers to print from XP SP2 machines via our Solaris and Linux Domain Controllers. Everything has been working OK, but when I setup an a new printer (identical ppd file to another one), it doesn't download the drivers on XP when I add the printer. This is happening on two domain controllers in different offices. It gives the error when

Hi there, I've had a mighty battle to get printing working with Samba in the last two days. Firstly, to get anything working at all (using CUPS), I had to use disable spoolss = yes use client driver = yes Once I finally managed to get the printer (an HP LaserJet Series II) working with locally installed drivers, I turned my interest to getting it to work with either Windows drivers stored
