similar to: Samba 2.2.7 and Win2K - printer drivers

For those who have been helping me or following the problem I've had of printing from Win2k (SP2) system to a printer on a Linux (Mandrake 8.1) server through Samba 2.2.1a, I have some good news and information that I hope helps other people. At this point I have established the problem is NOT a printing problem. It's a user/access problem that's connected with using my server

Dear list members, we are running samba 2.2.3a-6 with debian woody. Printing from win98, NT4.0 AND two win2k PC works, but with two other win2k PCs printing is not possible: The following german error Message is displayed in the win2k printer configuration: "Zugriff verweigert; kein Verbindung m?glich" The english translation could be something like this: "access denied; no

Hello, ** Please CC replies to ian@ichilton.co.uk as I am not subscribed ** I have a Brother laser printer connected to a linux box running Samba. It is working fine from Win98 workstations, but now I have Win2K on my laptop, I am unable to print. This is because the linux box obviously doesn't have the win2k driver so I tried to install it as a local printer and then change it to a network

Hi ! Here's a patch to add remote port forwarding support (protocol 2) for openssh. I have tried to test that it works like it should but a more thorough testing is needed. This patch adds both client/server support. The patch should be applied to openssh-2.1.1p4 source tree. Also included is a PortForwarding sshd_config option, new ./configure option --disable-forwarding that should make it

Hello fellows, I have this kind of configuration: one PC acting as samba server (PDC) with RH7.3 and three workstations with win2k. Today I've installed an Epson Stylus C62 printer on one of the Win2k machines (shared by the name of epsonlpt, and now I want to know if it is possible to use this printer from the RH Server? If yes, can you tell me how? Thanks in advance, Rapazito PT A

Hi... I got this new server at work that I have to get 100% up and running by tomorrow. It's running Samba 2.2.1a on SuSE 7.3 Pro It's supposed to be VPN - File and Printer Server The printers are: One OCE 700C / CS90 color copier and One OCE 3165 And there is only one problem left. I can install the printer drivers for Win9x & NT on the samba server. But I can't figure out how to

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

Hi ! Is anyone working on getting -R (remote port forwarding) working with protocol 2 ?

Hi, I'm sorry if this has already come up on the list, I did a quick search of the archive and didn't notice it. I noticed IMHO strange behavior in read_passphrase: If readpassphrase returns NULL and sets errno to ENOTTY, then read_passphrase returns an empty passphrase to the caller instead of error, now what happens with password authentication is that if readpassphrase fails every

Hi all, I'm very new in this list, as looking for codes to plug up the lack of functionality of "Protocol 2 Remote Forwardig". Fortunately, I could find it in MARC's archive. Mr. Jarno Huuskonen posted the codes in Sept, last year, and I tried applying it to my FreeBSD box environment. I couldn't apply an original patch, of course, for incompatibility of virsion. The

Hi, I noticed one small possible error in the openssh-2.3.0p1/contrib/redhat/sshd.init script. In the stop option: stop) echo -n "Shutting down sshd: " if [ -f $PID_FILE ] ; then killproc sshd [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/sshd fi echo

Hi ! Here's an experimental patch for openssh-2.1.1p4 to add support (to openssh client) for -R (protocol 2). So if you have access to a commercial ssh2 server (that allows port forwardings) could you test this patch. (Note the openssh server doesn't have support for -R with protocol 2 so testing with openssh server won't do much good). To test remember to use -o "Protocol

I am trying to setup samba-2.2.2 on a sun sparc 5 running solaris 8/10 to provide point and install print services for PC clients. I have read through the Samba how to doco that shipped with samba-2.2.2 and have followed the sections 6.2.1 thru to 6.2.2 and still no go ... For nt4 and windows 2000 I have connected to the print server as lp admin. I run the install wizard, select the samba

Seasons Greetings to One and All ....Hope this is the right place for this. I have just set up a samba 2.2.2 domain server (PDC) all, pretty much according to the howto's. All is working including the authentication of a win2K/SP2 box, pretty chuffed with all this actually just aquired Linux recently from a magzine. I have one problem, that is in trying to get the win2k box to add a shared

Hi, Has anybody produced diffs for openssh-2.3.0p1 for the rsa keyexchange problem that Core-SDI described ?

Hi, We have Samba 2.2.6(+2.2.7 security patch) installed on solaris. Samba is used as PDC for WinNT and Win2K clients. The WinNT machines have no problems geting into the domain as machine trust accounts exist in /etc/passwd and smbpasswd file. However, Win2k clients are not able to join the domain. I did go through the documentation, and hence created root account in 'smbpasswd'

Hi ! I think that the configure option --with-ipaddr-display doesn't set the IPADDR_IN_DISPLAY define in config.h Here's a small patch to configure.in that should enable the feature (after running autoconf again). -Jarno --- openssh-2.1.1p4-orig/configure.in Sat Jul 15 07:59:14 2000 +++ openssh-2.1.1p4/configure.in Mon Aug 7 08:18:15 2000 @@ -1026,7 +1026,7 @@

Hi, Openssh sshd opens the socket that forwards users requested port forwards as root, so the connection seems to come from root. Is it enough to open the socket as normal user so the connection would appear to come from that user ? (On Linux this seems to work, but what about other OS's ?) I tested this briefly by wrapping the channel_connect_to(target,target_port); (in

Hi all, I'm using openssh-2.9p2 on Solaris 2.8. I can get remote port forwarding to work using the -R flag, but only with ssh protocol 1 not ssh protocol 2. I've read that remote forwarding protocol 2 was not supported in earlier versions of openssh, but I'm wondering if this is still the case.
