Hi Kurt, I've read the new document. It's a very fine piece of technical documentation. However, it doesn't help me in the present predicament. Going now by this book I'm only getting more frustrated. What are your versions of Samba, CUPS(?), OS, and Printer again? 2.2.8a, 1.1.18, SuSE 8.2 w/2.4.20-62, Lexmark C720 I'm stuck! I would

Hi Kurt, I've read the new document. It's a very fine piece of technical documentation. However, it doesn't help me in the present predicament. Going now by this book I'm only getting more frustrated. I'm stuck! For example adding driver with rcpclient invariably ends in "Segmentation fault" (Signal 11) immediately after pop_sec_ctx, whose push counterpart was

Hi Kurt, I tried to explain my problem to you at Göttingen but it looks like I'm the only one who gets this error. I've just reinstalled my box with SuSE 8.2, kernel 2.4.20-62, samba 2.2.8a, and cups 1.1.18, moved all config files, databases, scripts and jobs to it and it looks like samba has become even better and faster. No one noticed anything wrong except I just can't come to

Hi, I am trying to query a W2K PDC for info on a print driver by issuing the following command: rpcclient -Uxxx%yyy -d 3 -c 'getdriver "HP LaserJet 8000 Series PS"' abert The response I get is: Initialising global parameters params.c:pm_process() - Processing configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf" Processing section "[global]" added interface

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". Can someone help on the meaning of this error, and on its reason (cause) ? Please find hereafter a file with result (and the error) of this commmand "cupsaddsmb", for a printer:

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

I've an OpenSuSE based server installed at work that uses Samba to share out the prrinters for our users on the AD that will be replacing our aging Windows 2000 print server. I'm in the process of getting the printer drivers installed for Windows clients. At present, I'm installing the drivers for the RICOH Aficio we have. When I run the following command:?

Hello, I want to setup a new print server using cups and samba for our new institue. Everything is working well (printing from unix and windows), but the driver download for the windows clients won't work and I have no idea what's wrong. Currently i have installed cups-1.15 and samba 2.2.5 on top of suse 8.0 using the rpm-files from Lars Mueller(?)(ftp.suse.com/pub/people/lmuelle) and

Hi Matt, the problem you referred to is discussed in detail as bug #82 in Samba's bug tracking tool. It consists of 2 bugs. One prevents the registration of drivers and is due to a NULL-pointer passed from that part of code in rpc_server/srv_spoolss_nt.c which calls sys_adminlog function. It begins with the comment /* BEGIN_ADMIN_LOG */ and ends with the comment /* END_ADMIN_LOG */

Hi, I'm trying to get Samba to offer the Adobe driver automatically for the two printers I have set up with CUPS. I have all of the necessary files plucked out of the Adobe Postscript Windows driver package, but I'm hitting the problem when I come to run "cupsaddsmb -v ..." that the "rpcclient adddrivers" command always fails with NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL. The drivers

Hi, samba 2.2.8a freshly compiled cups 1.1.19final-1 (debian) while using cupsaddsmb, all runs well until adddriver, when rpcclient returns a cryptic NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_DEVICE. I've followed the SambaPrintHowto 3.0 from 7.11.6.1 to 7.11.6.6, and it fails on the latest as well. Here is some more information. ===8<=== cupsaddsmb -a -v Running command: smbclient //localhost/print\$ -N

I have done one succesful driver for downloading to my windows 2000-client. When i try set another with "setdriver " I get a result as : SetPrinter call failed!

I've recently attempted to convert from the Adobe PostScript drivers for my Canon BJC=2110 printer over to the native CUPS Windows PS drivers and can't quite get things to work correctly. After deleting the printer on my WinXP SP1 clients, verifying under "Server Properties" that the Adobe driver was removed, then reconnecting to my Samba printer, I connect fine but receive

Hello, I have configured cups (1.1.18) on a Suse 8.2 Pro Linux server. I have also configured samba (2.2.7a), and joined a domain. I have created printers with cups and declared them to samba with cupsaddsmb command. All seems to be ok. I can print from my Linux server. But, when I want to print from ny windows2000 station: - I can find my linux server - I can find and connect printers

hi list, We got the following problem: We try to use samba 2.2.5 as a printserver for windoze clients (samba 2.2.5 on RH linux 8 w/ CUPS 1.1.15). CUPS works w/o any problems, but when we try to generate the drivers for the windoze clients (by using cupsaddsmb), we get the following error: >> cli_pipe: return critical error. Error was SUCCESS - 0 result was NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL

HI! I've a problem with cupsaddsmb!! :-( At the console I type: cupsaddsmb -U root -v <printername> and after some operations complete correctly appear this error: [...] Running command: rpcclient localhost -N -U'root%' -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86" "eps6100l:cupsdrv5.dll:eps6100l.ppd:cupsui5.dll:cups5.hlp:NULL:RAW:NULL"' cmd = adddriver

Hi everybody! I've got a problem with downloading printerdrivers from my win2k box. Successfully added printer with cupsaddsmb-tool (as root, after failing as printer admin!!?!?!). The W32X86 and WIN40 directories have been created as they should and also did the PPD files. But if I connect to the printer from Win (as printer admin) I get the message that no driver could be found. RPCclient

Hi List. We have an Redhat 8.0 machine who acts as an printserver. I'm sharing printers via Samba and using CUPS. Samba is 2.2.7a and CUPS 1.1.8. The Microsoft clients (Win9x, Win NT, Win 2k) is downloading the driver from the server. I had no problem to install and upload up to 55 printers but now I am not able to set the driver. I can install more printers, but when cupsaddsmb is running

Case strange... I've past probably 30 hours by now on this, crawling the web, and doing attempts. I managed to make cupsaddsmb run without producing an error, but it fails. Ask me for anything, full trace, versions and so on, but please, if someone has an idea, share it. ============================================ Linux Debian Woody unstable Cups 1.1.19final-1 Samba 2.2.3a-14
