Hey, I posted a few days ago about how the printer paper sizes are differ from the admin account when they are installed. People at my work are getting pissed at the moment and all they want to do is to be able to change the paper sizes themselves and not have it done at the server Is there a way to do it? I fluked it at one stage and had it working like that, I think I deleted the driver

Hi @all, I have 2 questions about printer driver installation on w2k-client for a samba served printer: 1. If I want to install a driver on w2k workstation, I choose network printer and then can browse the network. If printers are served from a Nt/w2k-server, in my opinion it is not nessesary to double click the netbios name of the Nt/w2k-server to see the shared printers. In this case under

Hi, Is it possible to set up a printer in samba that will use ps2pdf converter to create pdf documents when printing on it ? Best Regards Steph

Eric, I started as you instructed and when I get to this command, ./bin/update-packageinfo 2.2.6pre 20020730 I receive the error: no such file or directory next I changed to the RedHat dir. and executed sh makerpms.sh...this appeared to work fine. i could not execute rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.6pre-20020730.i386.rpm what I did execute is: rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.5-1i386.rpm and received the

I have RTFM'd, so excuse me if I missed something in the manual. :) 1) When I attempt to add additional drivers (the inital driver worked just fine, when using the instructions in John's HOWTO), I get the following error: "The printer driver you selected is either not compatible with your current version of Windows, or it may not be available. Select a compatible driver from the

Hi I'm wondering if anyone could help me out with this problem that is really bugging me. I've set up samba alright, and it working perfect except for one little detail that I noticed the other day. I tried to copy a filname with the nowegian char ?, over to a samba share, then it turned into an o. I then checked out the other norwegian chars, and they're working ok. So I dont't

I have installed RedHat Linux 7.2 and tried to get Samba working. I have tried a lot, but I keep bouncing the fact that on the linuxserver it is not possible to lookup itself using: nmblookup linuxserver. All other machines in the network are ok. I can find them through the nmblookup easy. Broadcast is ok, subnet mask brought back to 255.255.255.0, in fact it seems that all is in place as I have

Hi out there, i got a very good hint to the solution of the problem with the error-message: 2002/02/25 15:38:52, 1] nmbd/nmbd_processlogon.c:process_logon_packet(69) process_logon_packet: Logon from 10.170.20.8: code = 0x0 The hint was from Demerson Zounar: > I faced this problem some time ago, and the solution was an absence of the > parameter netbios name in smb.conf.

Not to many days ago, somebody posted a "refresh" script that I believe allowed you to refresh samba without dropping currently connected users. If this is correct, could someone repost please? I seem to have misplaced my copy and now need it fairly bad. Thanks, Wade Winright "Build a better mantrap, and the rats will beat a path to your door..." -Neil Fallon

Hi out there again, i just installed Samba-2.2.3a as a PDC on a Solaris-Box (2.6) and encounter Problems with Windows95 Logons. log.nmbd says: [2002/02/25 15:38:52, 1] nmbd/nmbd_processlogon.c:process_logon_packet(69) process_logon_packet: Logon from 10.170.20.8: code = 0x0 And Windows95b states: Invalid parameter.

Hello, please dont come and say one instead of every windows machine in your network, although it is something I would like to see happening.. my network has two lans A and B, I plan to install a SAMBA server in network A and have it act as a WINS Server too. I've been reading the online version of "Using Samba" and I am confused about the Local Master Browser issues, from the

I am not on the SAMBA list - so please if you reply remember to CC me. My Linux users have access to ps2pdf - a nice tool to convert Postscript files to PDF files.I'd like to make it available to my PC Users - who don't understand what a command line prompt is.... I know the following works: 1) On my Windows machine - Add a new printer an APPLE LASER POSTSCRIPT WRITER But

Hello Family, My RedHat-7.2 box prints perfectly to an Epson777 color injet printer which I gave an IP address via a mini printserver attached to the back of the printer. I have a Windows2000 computer hooking into the same RedHat-7.2 box via Samba-2.2.2 fine. I have not been able to get my Windows2000 box to print to the Epson777 color injet via Samba. [question] Since Linux already

Hi all, Just switched my home computer from Windows 7 to CentOS 6.6 and I'm having a slight bit of trouble with the bittorrent-clients. * Transmission is fine but lacks "a bit" in features. * Vuze is my preferred bt-client but gives me horrendous gfx-artifacts, like not showing the torrent name (it's white text on a white background or some such...). * Deluge is better, and

It seems anyone posting to this list gets a deluge (and I mean a deluge) of virus infected windows garbage. It's basically enough to ruin any email address you sign up to the list with; it doesn't matter if you have a virus scanner integrated with your MTA, I really don't want to see 200 virus notifications a day because i posted to this list. I have been getting about 20MB of swen a

I am essentially asking the same question that Eirik Overby asked a couple of years ago. Is anyone aware of PCI-X/PCIe hardware security modules that are supported on FreeBSD? I have not seen any on the FreeBSD hardware compatibility lists. Again, as Eirik noted in his question, HSMs are not simply crypto accelerators (which are supported on FreeBSD), they also are a means of storing keys

Hi all, I've been making a wrapper script for the backup tool 'duplicity', allowing me to create config files for each resource, wherein I define whether a snapshot should be made prior to backing up the resource or not. Now I find that my snapshots never change .... The script creates a snapshot, creates md device, mounts it, runs backup against the mounted snapshot,

First off thanks very much for all the hard work on unicorn. Alas, we''ve encountered an issue where unicorn fails to spawn new workers that have loaded the incoming revision on a capistrano deploy. I''m not entirely sure the issue is due to unicorn as it appears that bundler was responsible for a similar issue in the past:

I sent an earlier message asking for help in debugging the cause of this error. I didn't get any response. Today, I set debug level to 10, shutdown and started samba, and waited for the error to occur. The error did re-occur but I have 12460 lines of log to search through. What should I be looking for (I didn't want to send the log to the list)? > Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2000 12:37:48
