You must create a output filter. Edit /etc/printcap and add your client printer like this: ... PC-PRINTER:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/PP01:\ :mx#0:\ :lp=/dev/null:\ :if=/var/spool/lpd/Filter/PP01:\ :sh: ... Adjust the printcap parameters as needed (spool directory, directory to find the filter script). Make sure the lpd can access the directory. Consult your manual. Now create the filter

I just created a new smbpasswd file, all users with unset passwords. Problem is, users can't set their passwords, only I can as root. Password is not set / blank, but they still get: >test> smbpasswd >Old SMB password: <enter> >New SMB password: Samba >Retype new SMB password: Samba >machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : RAP86: The >specified

Dear Samba Team, We're running Samba version 2.2.4 on a Solaris 8 file server. Recently all PC clients were upgraded from NT4 to WinXP and although all drives are mapping (following the EnablePlainTextPassword fix) the Samba drives are not being reconnected correctly during a reboot of the client. We are used to the NT clients prompting for a password during boot to authenticate any

I've setup samba and can connect to a share with a password, but when I try to print, it prompts for a password... my unix password doesn't work. Any ideas? (BTW- this is running on DEC unix OSF/1 4.0b Here's my smb.conf: >#======================= Global Settings ===================================== >[global] > ># workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name >

I'm trying to compile Samba 1.9.18p8 for Dec Unix OSF/1 4.0b >Using CFLAGS = -O -DSMBLOGFILE="/usr/local/samba/var/log.smb" -DNMBLOGFILE="/usr/local/samba/var/log.nmb" -DCONFIGFILE="/usr/local/samb >a/lib/smb.conf" -DLMHOSTSFILE="/usr/local/samba/lib/lmhosts" -DWEB_ROOT="/usr/local/samba" -DLOCKDIR="/usr/local/samba/var/locks"

We've got users logged into Win95 with one username, and they need to log into samba using a different username.... of course if they try to map to their home directory, samba will use the current username, which doesn't match, and therefore, password invalid. How can I specify username in the mapping? \\server\homedir <then somehow a username> I know there's a way in Totalnet

I have samba setup for our department and it's working fine, with mounting drives and using printers... now I want to be able to do the same thing for all faculty with roadrunner access from home. I've put the ip xxx.xxx. of the local road runner in the smb.conf file for hosts to allow, and the machine knows about the server by adding it to c:\windows\lmhosts.sam I log in as the user on

Hi all, I have two samba machines running v1.9.18p4. When I try and list the shares on the second machine (calvin) fromn the first machine (hobbes) I get this: Session request failed (131,129) with myname=HOBBES destname=CALVIN Not listening for calling name Try to connect as another name (instead of HOBBES) You may find the -n option useful for this Any idea what this is trying to tell me?

Hi, We have been experiencing problems where workstations (Win2K SP3, latest updates) have their registry setting for EnablePlainTextPassword set to 0 after reboot. We have Samba 2.27 and a pilot of Samba 3.0 Could it be one of MSs sercurity updates ? Has anyone seen this before ? Any input would be welcome ! Thanks, Laurent Biron Motorola.

I've looke throught the archives and can't find much to help my situation. I have a Slackware 10 server running Samba 3.0.4 on a Win2k/2K3 Active Directory Domain. My win2k clients can connect to the samba shares but the WinXP clients cannot. I've tried the enableplaintextpassword hreg hack but that doesn't solve the issue. Here is my [global] section of my smb.conf Can anyone

Hello, please excuse if this question was asked before, but I wasn't able to find an answer for my problem in the list archive nor (with google) on a website. Here is my problem: I use Samba 3 from Debian/unstable together with ldap. The ldap-server is a NDS Server (Novell directory service/eDirectory). Authentication works well - with the smbclient of samba 3.x - from Windows2000 with

I run a NT-Domain with samba 3.0.28a and WinXP-Clients (SP3) Everything is fine. But now I created a new user and this new user can logon to all machines in the Domain but one. On this machine the user gets the message "user cannot login. check username/password/domain and be aware that username/password are casesensitive" (I translated this from german) Other users can login fine. I

Hello I have a problem with client in W2K SP2 (not with SP1 or NT4). I use a samba server (solaris 2.7/samba 2.2.2) and a PDC (NT4SP6). When a user open a session, the home directory of the user is not connected. But, after, if I connect a network drive, it is correct. So, I think that is not a problem of password (EnablePlainTextPassword = 1 on W2K and security=user on samba server). Can

Does anyone Know the procedure for Windows 2000 workstation, in order to not encrypt passwords. What I needed is something similar to the transcription I make below that works for windows nt4 and 98. Thank's Emanuel Duarte (Portugal) ********************************** This should take care of the "clear text password" problemsyou've encountered: For Win 98 (To enable

Hi. Have FreeBSD and Samba 2.05a with lots of Win95 rev 2 clients. With the EnablePlainTextPassword=1 registry setting on the Win95 boxes I my students have been logging in fine. We now have a few Win98 boxes I'd like to connect, but I can't log in - I get refused at the IPC$ share. I can log in if I use rhosts, however I don't want to do this for security reasons. The key is

For those of you that have had/are having problems getting Win 98 clients to correctly authenticate, I have identified a stumbling block which I had to deal with. Specifically, EnablePlainTextPassword *must* be a DWORD value. In following the instructions found here, http://us1.samba.org/listproc/samba/October1998/0321.html and on the Microtheft web site, I installed the ptxt_on.inf file from the

Hi all, After some config changes and reboots, I got the Samba server running properly for my client computers running Windows 7. My issue now is with Windows 10. I see threads relating to setting "max protocol = NT1", but this seems to break the Windows 7 clients (which are finally working again). Below is my smb.conf file (which works for Windows 7): [global] workgroup = JMC

"This error can occur if the drive letter you are mapping with a net use command is already mapped in the user's properties." part of the JSI FAQ at http://www.jsifaq.com/reghack.htm TO fix it, try disconnecting the drives before mapping new ones. This may or may not be the best way to fix it, but in my scripts, I use this: NET USE M: /delete /yes >nul NET USE M:
