Hi everyone, I have a properly configured printer (with cups) attached to the computer running the samba server. It prints when issued within the command line (lp). When I try to print via samba, the printer doesn't react. I have configured the smb.conf using the man page of cupsaddsmb. The samba log files don't report anything at all (tried to turn the verbose loggin but failed). The

Ever since a recent power failure I have been getting a Logrotate error. My machine is on a UPS -- it shutdown cleanly, but I suspect that its BIOS/RTC battery is dead, since the machine came up thinking it was 1982 :-(. I reset the clock and everything is fine, *except* I had to delete Logrotate's state files (which had bad dates). But now Logrotate is raising the error: error: error

Hi there I just upgraded from 3.0.23d to 3.0.25b. The server acts as PDC and print server. The setup is that Win clients automtically download the printers from samba. Worked all right so far. Here is what I did. Compiled the new version and installed it. Stopped smbd and nmbd and copied everything under /old-samba/var/ to /new-samba/var/ "smb.conf" stayed the same. Fired up the

Hello, I've got a centos 5 machine running the latest cups rpm v1.2.4. I've included my config minus comments below. My problem is via a web browser i can access the / resource without a problem, but when either clicking on any admin function or direct browsing to an admin address /admin i get a message error 426 upgrade required and i'm told i have to connect to an https address

I have set up a samba server which i also want to use as printserver using cups. I have configured a samsung printer using cups and am also sharing it via samba by having the printer share in smb.conf file. Now the problem is that when i configure this printer on the windows machine and then send job to this server machine the page_log file is not being updated. Hence i m losing on the printer

Hi all... I need some docs about how to intergrate cups with samba... I have install samba 3.2.5 and cups 1.3.8 on Debian Lenny system. I have install a printer ( Ricoh Aficio 3245C PS ) and have work fine... But when I follow the job on /var/log/cups/page_log, I always see that number of copies is 1, doesn't matter if the jobs has 5 or 10 pages... It's always show 1 on page_log... I

Hello...again...Y'all are getting sick of me, aren't ya? ;) Anyway, I am having quite the dilemna about printing. I'm using samba 2.2.7a aong with cups-1.1.5. I know this is an old version of cups, but this is a production server and I don't want to fool with it yet. Anyway, we have 2 printers: HP laser Jet 4 Plus and an Office Jet R80. each are running off a jet direct. One

Hi all, I posted about this issue few days back, but haven't gotten any appropriate response yet. Also, I haven't progressed any further by searching google or mailing lists. I am running CUPS-1.1.19-final and samba-2.2.8a on a highly available Debian server. I grabbed "cups-samba-1.1.19 drivers for Windows" from Cups website for automatic driver download to work on Windows

Hello, I've upgraded 2 of my Samba servers (out of 100+ Samba servers) in my live environment from version 3.0.14a to 3.0.27a. I'm using CUPS as print system for Samba (Samba is compiled with cups-devel) and I use the "Point 'n Print" mechanism of Samba (Windows) to provide XP users with the appropriate drives for the attached printers. CUPS is configured with RAW queues and

Greetings Admins, We use samba 3.0.7 with cups 1.1.20 to serve printing to XP clients. samba and cups originally sat on the same debian machine. Due to load issues, we've moved cups to a separate debian machine and added the 'cups server =' directive to smb.conf. After this, the XP client IP is no longer listed in cups page_log, the samba server IP is listed instead. We need

I'm sure you've seen that subject line before.... I can't get Samba (via Swat) to see my CUPS printers at all. I've tried everything I can think of...the single network-connected printer is listed in CUPS and I've added it on the command-line (via printconf-tui). I can send a test page to it from the CUPS web-interface and also through the printconf-tui interface. I can

hi. I am trying to get print working and have a hard time indeed... My goal is to replace our nt4 print server with a linux/samba one as we have problems serving printers and drivers to win2000 workstations (and I don't want to set up a win2000 server for printing, and have the same problem _again_ when switching to XP ;-) The situation so far : - Debian woody - Samba 2.2.4-1 - Winbind

Hi all I've been beating my head against a wall today trying to get a PDF printer set up on our Samba box. It is set up to use CUPS for printing, and from the mountains of documentation/howtos that I've waded through, it appears that when Samba is setup to use CUPS, it ignores the "print command" parameter which most people seem to use for printing to PDF files. I'm

Hi I am currently using Samba 3.0.11 and Cups 1.1.23 with Windows PostScript drivers and manufacturer PPDs on WinXP clients. When I print multiples copies of a document from a Windows XP box, the number of copies appearing in the Cups "page_log" file always takes the "1" value but the printer prints the correct number of copies. When I do the same on Linux (with the lpr

Hi all, I've just set up a Samba 3.0.0 PDC (LDAP+nss) on FreeBSD 5.1, with CUPS as default print stack, which begins to work nicely. I'm configuring a PDF pseudo printer, with the following share : [pdfwriter] comment = Imprimante PDF : g?n?re un fichier PDF printing = bsd path = /var/tmp printable = Yes print command = /usr/local/bin/printpdf -u

Thanks for your answer. So for my PDF printer, I switched back to BSD printing (calling cups-lpd), and keeped the local (to PDF printer) print command definition. It works now. I still had to add to cups (which automatically generates the /etc/printcap file) a fake printer with the name of the pdf printer (to avoid the loss of the manual addendum to /etc/printcap for the pdf printer). Best

Hello, we have a Samba 4 AD with cups as printing server. Windows clients can download driver via samba and nearly all is fine. Expect the cups log on http://dc1:631/printers/Printername?which_jobs=completed Name is always "unkown" and Owner is always "withheld" is there a way to log windows username how print the job? Best Regards,

Hi All, I'm not sure if this is a problem specific to samba, or to cups, or to something else. I have a samba 3.0.7 server acting as a PDC, and print server for my wonderfully overcomplicated home network setup. The problem is when I send a PDF to the cups server to be printed, it only prints the first page then the cups mgmt interface will say that the job is completed. If it's a
