I've noticed the list has pretty low answer:question ratio. I tend to think that many replies go directly to people who post the questions and those people never bother to share the answers with the community. I don't think this is fair so we may want to do something in this regard. We either need certain rules that will imply posting of summaries (as {SUN,LINUX}managers lists do), or the

A stupid question. With new printing system (spoolss) how people restrict access to the printers ? It was clear with the old system when each printer was in a separate share. I could assign a list of valid users for each printer share. TIA. -- Yuri Pismerov, Sr. System Administrator, TUCOWS.COM INC. (416) 535-0123 ext. 1352

Hi I have a couple of questions: 1. How do I exist from a domU console back to dom0 console (after issuing xm console [domU])? 2. How do I setup a dom0/domU in order to get a tty login?

Did anybody get to work password change enforcement with Samba PDC running LDAP ? It looks like it is "semi-working". I was able to enforce password change with USRMGR, but now it keeps asking me for the password change every time. I checked the pwdMustChange attribute and it is still set to 0 for some reason (hence checkbox for the password change enforcement in USRMGR is still checked

Hi all, I've compiled samba --with-quotas, turned on user and group quotas on ext3, assigned quotas, BUT it does not seem to be working. Windows client always shows all available space instead of showing the quota. Do I miss something ? P.S. I run Debian with 2.4.19 kernel patched for ext3 ACL support (from acl.bestbits.at). -- Yuri Pismerov, Sr. System Administrator, TUCOWS.COM INC.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello: I've configured a Linux box with Samba to act as a secondary domain controller for an existing NT server. I've gotten everything working very nicely, all my file shares set up, etc. I've got 6 printers that I need to set up as print shares. The ones that speak Postscript or PCL were very easy to set up, and work admirably.

Correct me if I'm wrong. With Samba 2.2.5, there is no way to get a group of users to manage printers so they be able to select/deselect duplex mode, tray, etc. Although I'm able to add a group with the Security tab and give them appropriate permissions, it doe not work from the user side - all the settings are still grayed out. P.S. I use LDAP backend if that matters. -- Yuri

I've connected a BSD machine to a WinME machine in the office to begin experimenting with samba. I've been messing about with it but I can't get a print of samba files to the WinME printer. My /var/spool/lpd/canon directory contains .config, .seq, status and lock files and a whole bunch of files that aren't getting printed to the remote printer. my .config file has: server=ICE1

I'm going to implement ACLs with my Samba PDC that runs LDAP on backend. Do I need to run winbind ? I've heard that winbind is mandatory for ACLs to work, All my users and groups reside in LDAP database, hence they have same names in bot Unix and Windows realms. Do I still need winbind ? TIA.

I'm not sure if this is normal or not. I run Samba 2.2.5 with LDAP on RH Linux 7.2. The thing is, it only works correctly when nscd is running. Otherwise it can't getpwnam and fails with no uid error. Interesting thing, there is no such effect on Debian Linux. Weird... pdb_ldap.c: sys_user = sys_getpwnam(username); if (sys_user == NULL) { DEBUG

Hi All, I am trying to print from a CentOS 5.3 server to a windows LPD service. After enabling the LPD service on Windows and creating a LPR port to a particular printer when I execute the following command on CentOS server I do not come out. lpr -H winprint:515 -P printer1 file.txt The above command does not exit. Do I need to configure anything on the server to be able to use lpr as a client ?

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

Are there any new

I've set up Samba and LPRng for HP printers with JetDirect cards. It works for one user at a time. But if the printer is off-line or busy, the samba client does not get an error message, but the job gets lost. :( I would like the print jobs to be spooled on Linux even when there is an active print job or when the printer is off-line. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with lpd. The
