Hey, I posted a few days ago about how the printer paper sizes are differ from the admin account when they are installed. People at my work are getting pissed at the moment and all they want to do is to be able to change the paper sizes themselves and not have it done at the server Is there a way to do it? I fluked it at one stage and had it working like that, I think I deleted the driver

Hi, Is it possible to set up a printer in samba that will use ps2pdf converter to create pdf documents when printing on it ? Best Regards Steph

Hi I'm wondering if anyone could help me out with this problem that is really bugging me. I've set up samba alright, and it working perfect except for one little detail that I noticed the other day. I tried to copy a filname with the nowegian char ?, over to a samba share, then it turned into an o. I then checked out the other norwegian chars, and they're working ok. So I dont't

I have been researching this for some time and have run into nothing but walls. My local LUG has basically told me this won't work or at least that no-one in the group has gotten it to work. I am trying to setup some SAMBA servers to replace some NT and Novell servers but I have been informed, by higher powers, that I must be able to do password aging with whatever I setup (like passwords

I have installed RedHat Linux 7.2 and tried to get Samba working. I have tried a lot, but I keep bouncing the fact that on the linuxserver it is not possible to lookup itself using: nmblookup linuxserver. All other machines in the network are ok. I can find them through the nmblookup easy. Broadcast is ok, subnet mask brought back to 255.255.255.0, in fact it seems that all is in place as I have

Hi out there, i got a very good hint to the solution of the problem with the error-message: 2002/02/25 15:38:52, 1] nmbd/nmbd_processlogon.c:process_logon_packet(69) process_logon_packet: Logon from 10.170.20.8: code = 0x0 The hint was from Demerson Zounar: > I faced this problem some time ago, and the solution was an absence of the > parameter netbios name in smb.conf.

Not to many days ago, somebody posted a "refresh" script that I believe allowed you to refresh samba without dropping currently connected users. If this is correct, could someone repost please? I seem to have misplaced my copy and now need it fairly bad. Thanks, Wade Winright "Build a better mantrap, and the rats will beat a path to your door..." -Neil Fallon

Hi Jerry et al, will the 2.2.6 release show the printers in the 'add-new-printer-wizzard' on the client like the WINDOWS server do ? I'm not sure if you know what I mean, so here is a little illustration: ----------------------------- | NTSERVER | | \\ntserver\printer1 | | \\ntserver\printer2 | | \\ntserver\printer3 | | SAMBASERVER |

I am not on the SAMBA list - so please if you reply remember to CC me. My Linux users have access to ps2pdf - a nice tool to convert Postscript files to PDF files.I'd like to make it available to my PC Users - who don't understand what a command line prompt is.... I know the following works: 1) On my Windows machine - Add a new printer an APPLE LASER POSTSCRIPT WRITER But

Hi out there again, i just installed Samba-2.2.3a as a PDC on a Solaris-Box (2.6) and encounter Problems with Windows95 Logons. log.nmbd says: [2002/02/25 15:38:52, 1] nmbd/nmbd_processlogon.c:process_logon_packet(69) process_logon_packet: Logon from 10.170.20.8: code = 0x0 And Windows95b states: Invalid parameter.

Hello, please dont come and say one instead of every windows machine in your network, although it is something I would like to see happening.. my network has two lans A and B, I plan to install a SAMBA server in network A and have it act as a WINS Server too.

I have RTFM'd, so excuse me if I missed something in the manual. :) 1) When I attempt to add additional drivers (the inital driver worked just fine, when using the instructions in John's HOWTO), I get the following error: "The printer driver you selected is either not compatible with your current version of Windows, or it may not be available.

Hello Family, My RedHat-7.2 box prints perfectly to an Epson777 color injet printer which I gave an IP address via a mini printserver attached to the back of the printer. I have a Windows2000 computer hooking into the same RedHat-7.2 box via Samba-2.2.2 fine. I have not been able to get my Windows2000 box to print to the Epson777 color injet via Samba. [question] Since Linux already

Hai Koenraad, Just a suggest, what about and email adres to create your pdf files. thats what im doing here. like companypaper at domain.tld , which generates from excel doc etc to a pdf file with companypaper. or plain at domain.tld same as above but no company logo. or multipdf at domain.tld merge mutiple pdf files to 1. ( or multiple doc/xls files ) and this is much faster for us

hi, since I upgraded some winxp-pro sp2 client to sp3, my samba-shared printers are no-longer usable :-/ With sp3, if I run notepad and choose the men? File-Print, the "print" window hangs and does not show any printer for about 1 minute! The same thing happens when I click on the men? Start-settings-Printer and faxes. With sp2, everything works correctly and I can browse all my
