Hi- I am experiencing some odd behavior with ACLs with winbindd using Samba 2.6 on Debian Woody (kernel version 2.4.18). 1. I am unable to alter permissions from Win2K clients using the Properties->Security interface. Is this normal? I get the "Unable to save Permission Changes on new Folder. Access is denied." message. This occurs with all accounts, both privileged and

We're using the built-in CUPS interface for printing from Samba and this, as shipped, leaves the spool files in the directory defined by [printers] path = whatever in smb.conf. Other printing types typically explicitely delete these files as part of the print command but the CUPS interface doesn't offer any facility to do this. A possible solution is, as in the attached patch, to delete

I have searched around the samba documentation, including the smb.conf man page, and have found nothing regarding the cups printing system except change printcap to cups. Now, I have done that, but printing still does not work. I need some types of details and a sample smb.conf and/or any other relevant documentation. Thanks much, George D. Plymale

OK, I've tried changing my printcap name from printcap to cups. Printing works fine locally using CUPS on the Samba box. What am I missing here? Why can't I print to the Samba box via the Windows and linux clients? Shared directories work fine. I am really frustrated here and have exhausted Google and all other resources I have. Here's my smb.conf for what it's worth.

Listers, I encountered a problem with samba (2.2.7a) when I was setting CUPS (1.1.14) up. I set it up through the web interface, setting the appropriate values in smb.conf: [global] <snip> printing = cups load printers = yes printcap name = cups [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no public = yes

Trying to get one Samba server to serve several printers through CUPS and host a virtual PDF "printer" at the same time. I've gotten them working separately, but not together, and I think I know why. In the smb.conf man page under "print command": "With printing = cups, and if SAMBA is compiled against libcups, any manually set print command will be ignored."

Ok... here we go, I have a server running RH 7.3, samba 2.2.3a, and CUPS 1.1.14. All the printers we have are networked printers sitting off of Linksys printservers. On this server I am sharing all off our printers out via Samba. See my smb.conf file below. This server works perfectly. All printers are shared out successfully. Primary CUPS server: [global] workgroup = NEW

have a strange isue. [ this is my 2nd day with centos4] nice instalatin BTW ok, i activated cupsd sharing and open the port 631 in the security level when i lpq from withing a network interface i get thi error ~$ lpq lpq: error - no default destination available. and in centos the log shows D [19/Mar/2006:08:37:17 -0500] AcceptClient: 8 from 192.168.1.100:631.

Hi- Our PPP RAS server is running Samba 2.2.8a and winbind. We want to authenticate dialup users through the PDC (Win NT 4 SP6). However, in order to do so, the dommainname needs to be prepended to the username, ie, DOMAIN+USERNAME. We don't want to have to teach all our dialup users to add the domainname when they login to RAS, so we are looking for a way to script this. Has anyone tweaked

Hi, My Centos 4.4 server at home is serving a Samsung SCX-4521F printer, which the *nix and Win clients connect to through ipp. Every so often (maybe once a month), the cupsd.conf and mime.types files are updated, which makes the printer unavailable to the clients. My fix so far has been to stop cups, overwrite the files with cupsd.conf.working and mime.types.working (these are backup files of the

If you are using the debian/rules from apt-get or the source tarball, you need to not only include --with-acl-support in debian/rules, you also need to vi debian/config.cache --> replace "ac_cv_header_sys_acl_h=${ac_cv_header_sys_acl_h=no}" with "ac_cv_header_sys_acl_h=${ac_cv_header_sys_acl_h=yes}" This will allow it to compile. Unfortunately, for me,

Hi all! Please help me... Scenario: - linux box, turned on only for developing and printing purposes, printing uses cups and samba - 2 winXP box most of the time turned on The following happened: - installed the latest gentoo distro, updating all the time, prinitng worked fine for couple weeks - 2 days ago it started not to print What I discovered: - after linux box boot it didn't print

I am trying to print from both a Win98 PC via Samba and a Red Hat 8.0 workstation to an HP 4 Plus printer that is connected to a Red Hat 8.0 server. I have managed to get the Win98 PC working OK, but am having difficulty with the RH8 workstation. I set the printer up using a browser with <Server>:631, calling it HP4Plus, and I can send a test print from the browser on the RH8 box via

Centos users, I new to Centos 7 and my problem is the following: I am using my Centos 7 system as a print server in a warehouse. Using cups for the print queue's. Which I can print to the printers find from the Centos 7 machine. The hosting system is Sco Unix using lpd printing. This machine is in Illinois and the warehouse / Centos 7 machine is in Arizona. I have loaded

We have been using CUPS to handle printing and have run into some "features" some of which a fresh install of the responsible server will probably fix. However there are some disparities between the documentation and our practical experience for which a clear statement would help others. The docs state when using CUPS the relevent lines of SMB.CONF should look like this: printing=cups

This is a hard one. I can set up cups & samba fine to print ok on FreeBSD and to print from W2K on BSD - ahh, but only with the windows printer driver for Epson - which sucks - there is no way to clean heads, the color is horrible, print area is limited, etc. The major problem is that there does not seem to be any documentation that explains clearly how the configuration works either for

Using samba 3.4.9 and cups 1.4.3 I have "printing = cups", but for some reason samba is not picking up the cups printers or creating the printers share. The problem is obviously this, from the samba logs: [2011/03/28 14:09:43, 0] printing/print_cups.c:103(cups_connect) Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost:631 - Connection refused However, cupsd is most certainly listening

Hello...again...Y'all are getting sick of me, aren't ya? ;) Anyway, I am having quite the dilemna about printing. I'm using samba 2.2.7a aong with cups-1.1.5. I know this is an old version of cups, but this is a production server and I don't want to fool with it yet. Anyway, we have 2 printers: HP laser Jet 4 Plus and an Office Jet R80. each are running off a jet direct. One

Hi, I know this subject appeared a few times on this list, but I've tried some of solutiuons presented there, and nothing works. I have a CUPS server and HP LaserJet 2200 printer. I downloaded postscript driver for this printer from cups.org, installed it in CUPS and then installed it using cupsaddsmb in Samba. This driver now installs automatically on my Windows clients. Problem is that

Hi, I've been setting up a few printer servers with CUPS. Our public libraries here all run 100% Linux (CentOS 5), so what I do is simply install the printer on one of the machines (with a static IP) and then configure CUPS so it can act as a printer server for Linux clients. It took me some time to figure this out, and I remember pulling my hair out for a few sunny afternoons, but I
