similar to: Problems loading printer list using Samba 2.2.7a with CUPS

I'm having some problems with our Samba Add-Printer-Wizard setup and CUPS. Everything is working fine (drivers upload, download, configured) except for one thing. Both my addprinter and deleteprinter scripts are forced to restart Samba in order to successfully complete their respective adding and deleting. Because of this, sometimes Samba will not come back up correctly. I read that

The "hide unreadable = yes" option gives strange results with samba 3.x. Everything works fine when the server runs as a domain controller. Users see the directories they are supposed to (unix group permission) in the share. Turning off domain control and setting "security = DOMAIN", however, hides every directory in the share unless you are an admin user. I can cd to the

Okay, I've got some progress now. Have fairly decent printserver working. I've been able to reproduce the same postive and negative results in two physical servers and now (finaly destination) a vmware server. What's working: ADS integration, this is a domain member Printer driver installation (for a few drivers) Printer installation / removal Printing. What's not working:

I'm trying to add print drivers to printers on a Samba server using a NT4 workstations in the past this has worked. I'm currently running Samba 2.2.7a & CUPS 1.1.17, when I attempt to add drivers to the new printer it crashes the NT4 workstation. Prior to the workstation crashing however it does copy the driver files to the server, it then pauses as if the workstation is waiting

I'm building an new server with CUPS 1.1.18 and Samba 2.2.7a (Both compiled from source) Installed the printer with CUPS and printed a test page with CUPS. Next step make Samba use CUPS. I've used cupsaddsmb command to do this, which completed successful. Running command: smbclient //localhost/print$ -N -U'root%XXXXXXXXX' -c 'mkdir W32X86;put /var/spool/cups/tmp/3e1bf35d1d1f9

Hi I have installed samba-2.2.7a and cups-1.1.18. After reading all the documentation samba provides as well as the cups administrators guide I am still stuck. I have added the printers just the way the samba and cups documentation says. Anyway here is my output from cupsaddsmb, It fails on the last step, so i have run that manually again afterwards with debugging enabled. I believe this to be

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I have a problem adding printer drivers for automatic downloading via samba for windows 2000 clients. Under cups I added my printer and copied the Adobe postscript driver files like mentioned in printer_driver2.html. And when I finally commit: cupsaddsmb -v -U root normal (normal is the name of the printer) And here is the output:

I can't seem to get the rpcclient-addprinter to work - grrrrrr It looks like the drivers files are copied correctly and the NT drivers are added correctly but the addprinter command says it's unsuccessful! rpcclient localhost -N -U JOHNSON\\root -c 'enumprinters' shows the printer!! What's going on? I've tried removing /var/cache/samba/ntdrivers.tdb

Hello, does anyone has some Information about M$ Exchanges Fax. If you configure Exchange there is an Option about Fax. If you go there, you can say you have the Modem on your PC or you can say it is in the Network and you have to put in the Networkpath. It would be great to use this with Samba but at this time I think Samba doesnt support it. Maybe someone has some Information for me how I

I've just installed version 1.9.18p8 on SPARC Solaris 2.5. I can connect with no problem from by NT box (map network drive), but when I try using smbclient '\\\\machine\\share' from the machine I installed on, I get: SMBtconX failed. ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree connect.) Perhaps you are using the wrong sharename, username or password? Some servers insist

I was running through the cvs.log and I noticed that there was a bunch of stuff on LDAP authentication. I haven't seen anything on the official releases about this yet, and I was wondering when/if it was coming, or if it was already there and just undocumented. Anybody? -- ================================ Jay Christner Information Technology Services Goshen College

We have a 8GB scsi disk on a samba server. If we look in the explorer on our NT clients, we see only 4GB disk space with 0 bytes used (seems to be a 32 Bit limit ?!). Is this a problem of samba or of the NT client ? Any solution available ? Thanks K.Konzept

Hi, i have a minor Problen with Samba 1.9.16p11 under RedHat 4.2 and samba 1.9.18 under RedHat 5.0.

Hello everybody, We are using Samba 2.02 on Sun Solaris 2.51 and 2.6 platforms. Using these as a file server we occasionally have the following problem: - the file is changed on the file server using standard UNIX tools while somebody else is editing it - the other user re-loads the file using a Windows 95 client - the content of the file seems to be the same as before the change on the windows

( I thought I sent this message out before, but never saw it in the digests ) Configuration : Windows NT 4.0 clients printing to Samba 1.9.18p8 running on Solaris 2.6/2.51 machines. The Samba servers are setup like this : ... security = server password server = %m encrypt passwords = yes networkstation user login = no ... So the server uses the

I want to thank whoever mentioned KerbNet by Cygnus Solutions! Wowza! I recommend that people check it out. It lets you implement Kerberos under UNIX and NT, and have them work together (so you have one *unified* security system that is used by both your NT and UNIX boxes). It's at http://www.cygnus.com/product/kerbnet-index.html It also does authentication *without* sending passwords over

Looking for help ! We have a rather strange problem working with Samba installed on a DEC Alpha server, when reading an exported directory from Windows. We are using an application written in C that reads a file from drive E: where a directory exported from Alpha is mounted. Once the file is read, all the further readings ignore changes in the file (file is changed on Alpha). Even as we read it
