Well, I wasn't really awake I guess.. It's just a script that calls GhostScript for pdf generation.. But the question still stands, what IS the best quality printer driver to use for GhostScript -> pdf printing? We need both colours and high resolution.. ------------------------ Hiya! Can anybody recommend what the best Windows XP printer driver is to generate pdf documents with

I can't figure out what's wrong with my config, I can see the share \\beata\anders, but not store0 or store1; # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file.

Hi! I'm experimenting with SuSE Linux and Samba 2.2.5 as a PDC, so far, everything works perfectly well, aside from that if I store an .exe file on a network mapped drive (from the Samba server) it can't be run? The workstation is a Windows XP Pro SP1, connecting to the Samba running as a PDC with LDAP backend. The machine and user logon works perfectly, but I can't execute .exe

Is it possible to send a pop-up message to all connected Windows stations in a whole domain via one command, or is it necessary to send one message per command to each station? It must be a command line utility since X isn't running on the server. Anders Norrbring

Hi! I was thinking, is there a way to use a linux box with Samba running in the DMZ of a firewall and to validate logons from the internal network? I.e. the users workstations are on the protected net on 192.168.111.xx and the Samba PDC resides in the DMZ, running subnet 192.168.222.xx. If it's possible, what ports need to be open? Anders Norrbring

I simply wonder if I can have several different logon script bat files for MS Win users that validates through my Samba PDC? Let's say that group "users" should have logon batch users.bat and the members of the group "sales" should have both users.bat and sales.bat executed at logon? Or can I in some way use ONE script with parameters that knows about what groups the user

Hiya all! I've browsed to lots of doc. Files, but I can't find a good answer. Is it possible to set logon time restrictions to users when Samba operates as a PDC, controlling Windows XP Pro clients? We're in the need to have different time restrictions based on user groups as well as individual users. Currently we run Samba v2.2.5, but will upgrade if needed. Anders Norrbring

I've noticed in the HOW-TO collection (for v3, unforunately..) that there is a command "net groupadd" to create group mappings for the Samba server to use when controlling users in the domain. Since my Samba is 2.2.8a, the net command doesn't exist on my system. Is there another utility to use to create NT groups (f.x. Power Users) that Samba can use in its PDC role? Anders

Well, now everything seems to be in place for the big leap to Linux for file server and logon server. But there is one big catch that I can't find any info about. The default user level mappings in a Windows XP SP1 / Samba 2.2.5 PDC setting. Admin level is perfectly clear, but there is a group level "Domain Users", what is the corresponding Windows XP user level? Will the user be

Is 'net use x: /home' deprecated nowadays? I just upgraded a very old Samba 2 to 3.2.8 and suddenly no workstations at all can use that command to map to their home directories. Workstations are W2k, Win XP and Vista in a mix. Neither work. Samba use LDAP as back end, and the related posts in smb.conf are these: logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\.msprofile logon script = login.bat logon home

Hi! I?m having trubbles with the speed on my samba server, I just uppgraded to gigabit (Realtek 8169 NIC) at home when i copy stuff from the samba server i get around 5-6Mb/sec and if i use ftp to access the same file on the same server i get almost 30Mb/sec does anyone have a clue what causes this problem? When i used my old 3com 905c for the local net i got normal 100Mbit speed (around

I'm not sure if this even SHOULD work. I can't find anything really useful in the documentation. I have a RedHat 7.3 system in the DMZ of our network, its address is 192.168.222.10, broadcast address is 192.168.222.254 I firewall, linux based with 3 ports, the 192.168.222.0 net (DMZ), the "outside world" on one port and the internal network is 192.168.111.0, broadcasting

I can't get rid of an old network I had configured on my Samba server, it was PDC on two subnets, and one of those nets are now gone. Still Samba tries to become PDC on the subnet (192.168.100.10). So, in my logs I get hundreds of these messages; [2007/07/26 22:38:57, 0] nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail(488) get_domain_master_name_node_status_fail: Doing

Hiya.. I got a new Samba for my SUSE 10.1 x86_64 by automatic update last night, and now all of a sudden my Vista workstation won't connect to the shares automatically. I have the machine as a domain controller with LDAP backend, and it's been working flawless until the new update to samba-3.0.22-13.32. My log.smbd shows this as the workstation logs in, and asks for username/password,

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

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

I have Samba 2.2.6 complied against Cups 1.1.16 on a Sparc system running Solaris 9. Cups has replaced the stock system V lp spooler on this system (original packages removed.) Cups working from UNIX command line is A-OK. I have been working on setting up Samba to play nice with cups. I have followed the instructions from both the Cups and Samba websites to set up downloading of the
