I posted this query a couple of days ago and received no responses. SInce that time, some other info has come to light that I thought would be useful to helping to solve this porblem. My network consists of a firewall machine networked with a SuSE 7.2 workstation and a Windows 2000 workstation. My smb.conf file is below: # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) # Date:

Which printing mnechansim works best with Samba? CUPS or BSD? I suspect that BSD support in Samba is not the greatest.

Well.. okay. Only printers. I am still having issues (pains, actually) getting my pritner shares to work from either Linux OR Windows 2000. One of the things I see here is that the majority of users use CUPS as the printing daemon. From my previous Unix experieince, I have gravitated towards BSD as my printing daemon. Could this be the reason I am having trouble> Does Samba work better with

I seem to have some issues coming to terms with the new smbprint configuration. Not that it is all that new, but I have worked on a ton of AIX Samba systems that are runing 1.9.x and the smbprint worked great in all aspects. The box's couldn't be upgraded (or so said the company that did application builds related to Samba). The printers were and are hosted from windows95 workstations

Dear Samba Team, the smbprint script as provided with Suse7.2 for Samba Version 2.2.0 did not work. The problem was that the file to be printed was not transfered via stdin after the print - command. I changed the smbprint script to pass the commands via the -c option. My changes and comments are marked with MR27092001MR in the smbprint attached. I did not find this in the lists, so I hope this

Hi, Maybe someone can help me. I am running FreeBSD 3.2 with Samba 2.0.4b and NT Server 4.0 with SP3 and I added the BSD machine to its server list. My printer is setup on my NT for print sharing. Well if I connect to the share name of the printer via smbclient ( ./smbclient \\\\ESAU\\EPSON -U login%password) I am able to successfully access it and even print. However, when I use the

I am trying to get my samba setup running (after putting it on the back burner for a few months with other issues). I am running Samba 3.0.0 on a SuSE 7.2 install.

Dear users Thanks for reading this. Hope you will help me. I am using samba 1.9.17p2 on SunSparc-20 running solaris2.5.1 for printing and file sharing with PC-network. File sharing is working fine but I want to print to a WfWg printer from Solaris. So I have used your script smbprint.sysv and try to print. But I am facing following problems: 1-

Hello there, I've produced a modified version of the smbprint script that comes with the samba source. The script is aimed to retry sending the print job if the windows machine is switched off at the time of printing (samba seems to just drop the print job after a period of time if the machine is off). This script will mail you to tell you the machine isn't turned on yet and if you

I work in a lab were the only "printer" we have is an HP 3100 (printer/fax/scanner) item. This printer is hung off a Windows98 box and I want to be able to print to it from my linux box using smbprint. I can connect to the share that represents this printer: smbclient \\\\server\\printer "" -N and I get the SMB> prompt which (I think) is pretty useless for printers.

Hi, Does anyone happen to know a good document about SMBPRINT.SYSV ? I am trying to make my SGi IRIX 6.2 print to a PC Printer via SMB, unsucessfully. I followed the smbprint and lp (sysv) docs in Samba 2.0.7 but, I guess, something is missing, I can not print to that remote printer. I think I do not need a printcap file since it is using lp. But nothing happens and I get e-mail from spooler:

When I attmept to mount a PC (W2K) share via my fstab, I get the following error message on the mount: "Unknown parameter encountered 'file'" Truth be told , samba is becoming more and more frustrating. The only thing I have been able to successfully do is to make visible my NFS mount point across my file server to my W2K machine. I am running SuSE 9.1, Samba 3.02a Enclosed is

I am trying to allow printing from my linux box to my win98 box, to which my epson stylus printer is attached. It's just not happening...something tells me I'm flirting with a world of pain. I *can* print a file by going: smbclient //rory/EPSON translate print /etc/group but I cannot print from applications, nor can i use smbprint. I tried going: cat /etc/passwd | sh -x smbprint
