similar to: Can't add print drivers for existing printers

I am logged on as a domain admin and printer admin. I have created and assigned the correct rights to /srv/printers and have created W32X86 and WIN40 subdirectories. I was able to go into server properties and upload all the necessary drivers. When I right click on the printer and say "No." to "Printer driver not installed, do you want to install the driver now?" the drivers

OK, I've tried to "read the fine material" and have read more than one reference and more than a few months worth of threads in the archives, but I am still stumped with this issue. When using logging on with Win9x, there is a profile error #4, and it complains that it was not able to open or create a file in the \\regmain\[username]\.profile\Cookies folder on login and sign out.

I've just downloaded and installed the SAMBA binaries for HPUX 10.20. I'm been unsuccessful in getting swat to run though. I've made the correct entries in the /etc/services file (swat 901/tcp) and in the /etc/inetd.conf file (swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /opt/samba/bin/swat swat) and have shutdown and restarted the inetd daemon. When I use Netscape and access

I installed samba 2.2.8a and imprints 0.0.9b on a freshly up2date Redhat 8.0. I tried to install a driver using: install_printer_drivers.pl -host imprints.sourceforge.net 'HP LaserJet 8100' The driver files were copied into the /etc/printers/W32X86. But samba created another directory, /etc/printers/W32X86/2 with uid and gid of nobody,nobody. It then reported an "ERROR!" and

I'm looking at migrating a small Netware 3.12 server to a Linux box with samba for a small office. They use a DOS program called `ACCPAC' to do their accounting; both the program and it's data reside on different exported volumes on the netware system. I set up a linux box (for testing- deployment later, maybe) to make sure the program would run with samba before going ahead and just

Hi, I have a samba 2.2.2 on HP-UX 11, serving a few printers. When I install a new driver via win2000' printer properties dialogue it works fine. When I try to do the same from unix with the imprints package, ist screwed. The driver files get uploaded, but they don't register as an installed driver, with rpcclient 'enumdrivers' I don't 'see' them. When I set the

Jerry, Perhaps you could help me with a problem building a Samba print package. I've downloaded the drivers files I need from HP. I run the appropriate mkprintpkg.pl command, but it dies with the following output: [root@tux designjet]# /usr/local/imprints/bin/mkprintpkg.pl --name="hp1050c" --version=1.00 --display-name="HP DesignJet 1050c" -d "HP DesignJet 1050C

Hello all! Samba works fine. GREATE WORK OF SAMBA TEAM!!! But when i try to upload more than one driver for printers samba writes to log: [2001/03/30 13:30:18, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:move_driver_to_download_area(1178) move_driver_to_download_area: Unable to rename [WIN40/hpblgbe.drv] to [WIN40/0/hpblgbe.drv] and then if i try to download driver to workstation, samba says that driver is not

Greetings, I have spent over a month of my evenings working on this. I am indeed a Samba newbie. Version of Linux: Red Hat 7.2 with latest RPM's from RedHat ftp site on a minimal custom Red Hat install with bastille_linux installed. (tmp defense removed as it was interfering with samba using the tmp directory) I have tried this with bastille stopped and running with no change) Samba RPM

Hello - I've been working on getting ready to cut our 60+ Samba servers over from the old style printers.def approach to the new printer drivers databases. However, I'm have a hard time uploading the packages onto the server using the install_printer_drivers.pl script from Imprints 0.0.9b. To make sure I wasn't packaging them wrong I used the imprints.sourceforge.org server to get

Hi Jerry Carter and list members, The post below was rejected by the list moderator as too big. That cost me four days and now I am really anxious for positive feedback from rpcclient experts either in the field or at samba.org. It was too big because I included a listing of STDERR and STDOUT from setting debug level to 10 in step #4 of install_printer_drivers.pl. I have trimmed it down by

Hello, Adding to my previous msg, debug level 7 finally gave me some output. In my smbd.log i am seeing the following whenever i try to upload printer drivers: getpeername failed. error was transport endpoint is not connected I've looked in to other methods of doing this, imprints doesn't seem to be supported, cupsaddsmb won't work with vendor supplied drivers, and to date i

Hi all, i'm new to the list and here's my first question : I'm trying to install several printer drivers on my samba server with imprints. I did a package with the NT/2000 and W9x drivers and the mkprintpkg command. Then I used the command install_printer_drivers.pl to install the files in the appropriate directories. So now i'd like to check the drivers available and the

Can SAMBA be used on Solaris9/SUN OS 5.8 to emulate a MicroSoft NetBeui client and thereby print to a print server. I have a printer(ps) that is netbeui only and want to print to it from a Sparc station. lp and lpr are not available by TCP/IP. Please respond off the board(direct-mail) as I'm sure this is too basic for most users and I did not subscribe to list. I did search the archives and

Hi, I've been reading the docn on installing printers via the samba server and I find it all rather confusing so I'm hoping some nice person out there can explain it a bit more clearly. I have Win2k clients/Solaris 7 Samba server (2.2.2). What I want to get working is client PCs installing printers as easily as possible (i.e. so that our users can do it and not me !). I have

Thanks Andy ! Unfortunately the situation is unchanged. Interesting is that sometime Win98 can see the correct shares but only the first time when is accessing Samba and then... lost. I'm still trying . Can someone tell me how to find what values those %.. parameters take when Samba is acessed ? Alex > > Go to http://www.reac.com/samba/ and check out the stuff with

I finally got my drivers to upload to the print$ share by using the add_print_package.pl script form imprints, and I was able to attach the driver to the printer created with SWAT (the rpc command: addprinter does not work) by using the rpc command: setdriver. So at this point whenever I connect a client to the machine it no longer asks about trying to find a driver. However when I go to open the

Hi all, i am using iptables (1.2.8) + iproute on Slackware 8.0 (i386) working fine, marking packet based in destination port and network and selecting the appropriate route with this marks (i have two links, a 256Kb frame relay and a 512Kb ADSL). Now i change the machine for a Sun Enterprise 250 (Sparc64 with Debian 3.0r1) and iptables works fine (the packets are marked) but iproute

I'm trying to print in Linux to this Windows-only printer. I'm using LPRng. Both the printer and my windows interface (win4lin) are on the same LAN. I've added a new printer device lp5 in /etc/printcap, with an if line for the smbprint script when I send a command to that printer. A logfile reports that the server name and service name are correctly passed to the smbclient program.

Hello, everyone, Particulars: Solaris 8 on i386 Samba 2.2.5 Windows 2000 PDC Windows XP clients I'm having occasional problems with one or two Windows XP machines being able to browse my Samba server while members of a Windows 2000 domain.
