Hi all, I'm new to this list, as to SAMBA, and I'm struggling with getting a printer to work as a shared printer in a Windows network with a redhat 9 server. The printer is a HP 4550 Color LaserJet, installed with CUPS to the server, via JetDirect (port 9100). It prints testpages fine from the Linux-server. It was installed with the install-printer-utility in RedHat9. I have then shared

I have searched around the samba documentation, including the smb.conf man page, and have found nothing regarding the cups printing system except change printcap to cups. Now, I have done that, but printing still does not work. I need some types of details and a sample smb.conf and/or any other relevant documentation. Thanks much, George D. Plymale

OK, I've tried changing my printcap name from printcap to cups. Printing works fine locally using CUPS on the Samba box. What am I missing here? Why can't I print to the Samba box via the Windows and linux clients? Shared directories work fine. I am really frustrated here and have exhausted Google and all other resources I have. Here's my smb.conf for what it's worth.

Hi there I just installed the above mentioned system and try to print from a W2k box to the Samba box but nothing happens. There's no problem in printing from the RH box or via Webmin but when I try to print from the W2k box nothing happens. I don't get an error or anything. I installed the printer by the help of the add printer tool in RH, and simply go to the Printer--->Add

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 am new to Samba. I run FreeBSD 2.2.5-stable and Version 1.9.17p4. I would like my FreeBSD server to act as a DOMAIN Logon. And, for example if user riso logges in (using his FreeBSD box password) his /home/riso should be automatically maped to G: or something. The error message I get is: "You have entered an incorrect password, or access to your logon server has been denied."

I''m wondering if the following is possible under recent versions of shorewall: 1. We have several class-C networks from both UUNet and Internap, both of which are actually routed over a single inbound ethernet line from UUNet at our colocation facility: 204.176.148.0/23 and 216.52.83.0/24. This gives us a total of 3 class-C subnets. All packets for these three subnets would land on

At the end of a print job in my hp930c paralell printer in my samba-server (Suse Linux 8.0), an extra (blank) sheet is ejected. How can I correct this ??

I'm trying to change my Samba setup from LPD to CUPS, with little success. I've followed [and re-followed] the setup documentation from CUPS and I just can't get Samba to recognize my printer. The catch is - it sort of recognizes it :-( First I added these lines to my smb.conf: ========================================= [global] load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name =

I sent this twice, but since nobody answered, I guess its not a "quick question" anymore. ;) Version 2.2.5 on 2.4.18-6mdk ive got the following in my smb.conf [global] add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g machines -c 'Machine Account' -s /bin/false -M %u workgroup = ARCHANGEL netbios aliases = CYBERCENTER PARISHCENTER netbios

Hi all, I have been receiving the error "tree connect failed: ERRSRV - ERRinvnetname (Invalid network name in tree connect.)" for a while and I finally fixed it, but I have some questions about why it was happening. Firstly, it is Samba 2.0.7 running on Mandrake 8.0. My smb.conf file is at the end of this message. The machine's name is pinhead and in checking log.pinhead, I

Hi, I've converted some accounts with "dsync mirror maildir:~/Maildir". It seemed to work, but when I access the folders via IMAP I get the following error: Jul 11 09:41:59 shrike dovecot: imap(matze): Debug: acl vfile: file /home/matze/mdbox/mailboxes/Telefon/dbox-Mails/dovecot-acl not found Jul 11 09:41:59 shrike dovecot: imap(matze): Panic: file mailbox-list-fs.c: line 150

I've googled for this and poked around linuxprinting.org, but couldn't find anything helpful. I have a CentOS 5 server with an HP LaserJet 4 attached via JetDirect with the hplip driver. The problem is that when I have multiple print jobs in the queue, there is a delay of about 15 seconds between each job. This gets very annoying when there are 10-15 one-page jobs in the queue.

Hi. I run SuSE 8.1 and samba here. On the linux machine I have a HP1100A on the parallel port, and a HP-DJ895Cxi on a USB port. I can print ok from this linux machine to both printers. From my laptop, that runs WIN98, I can print to the HP1100A printer. I cannot print to the DJ895Cxi, even if its set up as a network printer. I could do this with SuSE dists up to 8.0. From 8.1 printers are

Hi there. I have the following Problem (configuration follows): I have configured Samba with 3 printers, 2 of them with direct connection over TCP, because they are connected directly to the internal network. When I try to print on one of them, the printing application on a Windows XP Professional client freezes and a Windows 2000 client reports an error message, that there is a problem with

I've just tried setting up a Shrike (9) version of Redhat. Using the medium settings of lokkit, then adding manually accept commands for ports 137/udp 138/udp, 139/tcp and 445/tcp, I thought I should have been ready to go. This isn't the case, however. I know it's not the smb.conf settup because when I kill iptables samba works. When iptables IS running however, it will respond

Hello everyone, I am running Ubuntu and have converted my CDs to FLACs (using all the paranoia and fixing all the tags etc.). What is the best way for me to convert all of those FLAC to ogg-Vorbis files, keeping all the tag information and the same directory structure? I am not wanting anything incredibly advanced, but was expecting something like vorbconvert /media/cd_rom/ /home/aaron/vorbis/

Hello, I have successfully installed samba 2.2.8 (with CUPS) as a windows printing server using the print$ share. The W2000 clients are able to send jobs to a printer and view the corresponding printer queue. However, when I try to delete a job from the windows client, I get the error "bad command". My printers share in smb.conf is: [printers] comment = All Printers path =
