similar to: windows client use Linux printer

Hi, I am a newbie on samba. I use a vmware version which is slightly modified but I hope this group can still help. On the Linux machine I have set a Lexmark printer using Lexmark driver. This works fine but the way it works is that the filter does the actual connection to the printer (which uses USB port) whereas the lp directive is set to lp=/dev/null. (in case this piece of information is

Hi, Some years ago I developed a Delphi application for my private use and now I want it to run on Linux using wine. The application uses Paradox database engine. I tried to install the engine itself but failed. Eventually I installed the whole Delphi development environment with wine. It certainly installed BDE but I can not run even the dbd32.exe (database desktop). Machine: RH9 HW: HP

I used the tool wine-config-sidenet from http://sidenet.ddo.jp/winetips/config.html which works great. I installed wine 20041201 as recommended and started wine-config-sidenet setup program and IE6 seemed to run great however, some URLs didn't work for example: www.arkia.co.il. Looking at the FAQ I noticed I should install dcom98.exe. When installing it I got windows popup stating:

A couple of days ago I set up my printer on my FreeBSD server and set it up so I could print from my FreeBSD client. This all works very well, printing from botht the server and the FBSD client. However, I also have samba set up for file serving with an XP box. I have been trying for quite some time now to set samba up to enable me to print from the XP client. My situation at the moment is that

Hi, I had a few problems with IE regarding either Java script or active X under wine so before I started wining I upgraded to latest available version on Gentoo dist 20041019. I saved my config file and made sure it was not changed after installation. (it should not have, I use emerge as root). Now whenever I start IE I get: $ wine ~/.wine/fake_windows/Program\ Files/Internet\

Hello, I have a new RH 7.2 installation (kernel 2.4.7-10) with Samba 2.2.1a and I can't print from my Win2K box. I get an "Access denied: unable to connect" error from the printer entry in Windows. The logs don't seem to be helping me. Here's my smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = MYGROUP server string = Samba SMB Server interfaces = 192.168.1.1/24 127.0.0.1/24 hosts

Primarily because I've never gotten it to work despite frequent efforts. Offeding printer is a Lexmark Z53 (supposedly fully supported) and when ever I try to add it to an XP box I get "Server doesn't have the right driver, do you wish to upload the driver?" then when I do it says "Cannot connect to the printer.

Hi, As suggested by Joachim, and after a fresh start using 20050111, I try to use winetools to set wine configuration. As described on: http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/WineTools/ I started the basic installation in which I also went through the dcom98 installation but got errors. First I got a wine window labeled "W95inf3.." stating "ThunkConnect32 Failure!!" and on

Hi, I made a Howto for installing IE6, MS Office 2000 and some other apps with wine-20031212 (all never versions have certain drawbacks). Everything works fine and I will soon publish this Howto on my site. In comparison to Crossover there are only two drawbacks with my installation: 1. When IE6 tries to open a new window it is blank. That means also if links want to open themselves in a new

I'm stuck. I have Samba running on my Red Hat 7.2 Linux box. I can mount by remote dirctory on the Linux box via Samba. But I can't print to the Linux printer. I have a Linux printer installed and I can print to it using lpr. I have a printer configured in Samba and can see that from the Win98SE box. I've clicked on the Samba printer name and configured a Win98 printer.

I am having problems getting Samba configured so I can print. I am going from Windows XP to Samba. I don't get any error messages in Windows saying that there is a problem. It sends the document then that is it. It is like the document gets lost. I am able to print through Linux and WebMin. What should I look at next? I am using the latest version of Caldera OpenServer. I believe the version

Hi, I am on RH 8.0 and samba 2.2.7-1 . Why when I share my printer on my linux my xp client can not connect to it. It can see it in "network neighbourhood" when I want to connect it , the message is : Refused access. Impossible connexion . And On W98 box , a printer connected to this LPR has status to < ERROR > . I know that It's caused by my smb.conf: [global]

Is there a way foe me to get the print job name to be something other than "remote downlevel job"? All my jobs are now printing flawless except for this. I would like to be able to get a file name or program at least. Thanks Tony McGrew www.multicam.com

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, everyone - I've been trying for two weeks now to get my print server operational under Samba.

Printing from the server works fine, but

Hi, i have the lexmark Z22 printer. If I print a test page through RedHat's printtool in .ps format it works fine, but not ascii. So, i'm wondering how I can change samba so it prints it in a .ps format through the share, I assume that's probably the problem. THX

I am attempting to get printing services for Windows 2000 clients working with Samba on a Red Hat 7.2 box. The problem is I can not cancel print jobs (either from a PC or the local smb client). File sharing, and printing other than this problem, work fine. Here is a listing of configuration and system info: 1) the samba packages installed, 2) output of "uname -a", 3) the
