This is strange, but I use samba for a software archive at work, and we are having trouble with Office 97. I traced it back to riched20.dll. The file is one the server, but it never copies. I can't even see the file. If i rename it, it shows up. What is up with that? /\/\/\/\/\/\ Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool. /\/\/\/\/\/\ coreyfro@coreyfro.com http://www.coreyfro.com/

2000) into dos, and with your boot disk, read the share listing of machine A from a linux box and mount it, and the rsync the whole drive if shared (say c:\ with c:\winnt and all the good stuff). Though, i still could NOT actually restore this 'mirror' image like i could a 'mirror' image of a linux root?? So, ultimately, there is no reason to even waste the hard-drive space

Hey folks, I was having a problem at work with Samba 2.2.3a (SuSE 8.0) as well as a Redhat machine I know nothing about and an HP Workstation station I know nothing about. Each had painfully slow writes from dos clients (for using Norton Ghost). I tried many machines, many nics, and even played with different hubs. All caused problems. I even tried VM-Ware to VM-Ware. I have Samba 2.2.4 at

Hello all, I am running a Debian testing/unstable system with samba 2.2.3a-6 and cupsys 1.1.15-4 as a member server in a samba domain. I have used CUPS to add a networked HP8100N printer and it works fine locally, but I'm having difficulty adding it to samba for Win98 domain clients to use. I ran cupsaddsmb to add the printer and drivers to samba, but it cannot find the PPD file... where is

I can't even get cupsaddsmb to work right. I followed the configuration instructions from the documentation, and my smb.conf matches what the cupsaddsmb man page says. I am getting extremely frustrated with this and not being able to allow clients to download drivers from Samba. With cupsaddsmb, this is the error I am receiving when it gets to this point, over and over: Running command:

Hi! I'm using Suse 9.0 with cups 1.1.19 and Samba 3.0. I'm trying to share my printer on the network. Testparm runs without errors and I can see my printer in the network neighborhood.

I'm getting ready to migrate my office of 50+ Windows XP machines to Windows 7, in a mix of 64-bit and 32-bit clients. I've setup a new samba server on a separate domain to prepare and test for this transition. I've gotten everything to work so far except for printing, and I'm at a loss on how to proceed. It appears to me as if adding the printer drivers in the usual way,

Hi All, I was recently directed to look at some upstream CUPS changes which impact Samba's printer server functionality: cupsaddsmb has been dropped via https://github.com/apple/cups/commit/f1def5b85f51120f5dc1eb21e1f38860ef41be9c Given that it's only just gone in, I wouldn't expect it to reach distros for some time, but I think it's worth discussing how/whether we should react.

Hello, I have installed cups on a linux server (running with RH 9.0). When executing "cupsaddsmb -a -v", I get an error: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFULL, when attemping to execute adddriver".
