similar to: Does automatic printer driver download from Win 2k client work?

Hi all, According to Samba 2.2.x HOW-TO: You need to download them yourself from the Adobe website. Once extracted, create a drivers directory in the CUPS data directory (usually /usr/share/cups/). Copy the Adobe files using UPPERCASE filenames, to this directory as follows: ADFONTS.MFM ADOBEPS4.DRV ADOBEPS4.HLP ADOBEPS5.DLL ADOBEPSU.DLL

Hello, I am using cups-1.1.19final-1.deb and samba-2.2.3a. When I was working with cups-1.1.15 before, cupsaddsmb worked fine, but now with cups-1.1.19 it gives me: Running command: smbclient //localhost/print\$ -N -U'root%secret?' -c 'mkdir WIN40;put /var/spool/cups/tmp/3eef829eea1b8 WIN40/ps948esb.PPD;put /usr/share/cups/drivers/ADFONTS.MFM WIN40/ADFONTS.MFM;put

Hey folks. I am trying to set up a cups/samba printer server, and I am having trouble using cupsaddsmb. I isolated the problem to a rpcclient and here is the information I gathered from the various commands. If I delete all the files in "/var/lib/samba/drivers" cupsaddsmb installs the folders and files, but doesn't move the files in to the WIN40/0 folder with the adddriver

Hi, I have a linux box on RH7.3 with samba 2.2.5-1 and cups-1.1.14-15. I create a cups printer on to this machine with success, It called lptest? and apparently, when I send a page test it works fine. But now I want to share It via Samba then I putted the different setting in smb.conf . I extracted the different files from the ADOBE POSTSCRIPT DRIVER and I put them in /usr/share/cups/drivers .

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I have a problem adding printer drivers for automatic downloading via samba for windows 2000 clients. Under cups I added my printer and copied the Adobe postscript driver files like mentioned in printer_driver2.html. And when I finally commit: cupsaddsmb -v -U root normal (normal is the name of the printer) And here is the output:

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, I played around with samba 2.2.5 and cups and tried to get it working. Well everything is fine, but the driver upload to the client WILL NOT WORK. I used the current stable downloads, latest patch for printing, prebuilds from Lars Mueller .... I put together everything. If one has a working samba//cups please tar it and place it on our ftp-server. I don't know what's wrong here

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

When running the cupsaddsmb command, I get the following: Since I am running as root, what do I not have access to and why? Any help would be appreciated. Glen Crowley <<...OLE_Obj...>>

I have set an alias, and it shows up in Network Neighborhood, but when I try to open it a pop-up window says it is not accessible, "The network path was not found." The primary name works fine however. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Before anyone responds I would like to let everyone know my problem is fixed :) The problem was lpr would only spool so big of a file, so I had to add a -s option to it.

We have a customer who requires us to use SAMBA to transfer large amount of data with sustainable transfer rate of 30Mbits/s. Both server and client is Linux machine. We already tried to set the SENDBUF and RECVBUF to 64K and IPTOS_LOWDELAY but the best we could get is about 5Mbits/s. After reviewing the Ethereal trace, it is clear that the client only request 4096 byte of data per read request

I'm following the Samba HOWTO for CUPS printing, trying to run the 'cupsaddsmb' program but it requires the Adobe PS files. The howto says to get them from www.adobe.com, can anyone be more specific? The files required are: ADFONTS.MFM ADOBEPS4.DRV ADOBEPS4.HLP ADOBEPS5.DLL ADOBESU.DLL ADOBESU.HLP ADOBEPTR2.PPD ICONLIB.DLL I've downloaded the "Universal 1.0.6 English"

I have tried everything I could possibly think of to get printer driver download working with Samba 2.2.3a-6 and CUPS 1.1.15-4 (latest Debian unstable packages). I am wondering if anyone else has go this to work at all (with newer versions of samba or cups?) -- if so please let me know to give me some hope. Or else I am thinking this is officially 'broken'. CUPS is working perfectly

Hi I have installed samba-2.2.7a and cups-1.1.18. After reading all the documentation samba provides as well as the cups administrators guide I am still stuck. I have added the printers just the way the samba and cups documentation says. Anyway here is my output from cupsaddsmb, It fails on the last step, so i have run that manually again afterwards with debugging enabled. I believe this to be
