I cranked the debug level to 10. Below is a transcript from the client log file of a client trying to open a Properties dialog for the HP 4500 printer. I am puzzled as to why Samba would be looking for a user with the name of a printer. Is this normal behavior? Anyway, about a minute after the last log entry below, the client showed a dialog "Printer properties cannot be

Mates, On my Suse 9.0 pro installation, I updated Samba from 2.2.8a to 3.0.7. The upgrade went flawlessly, Samba is happily sharing all the files it was before. However, I can no longer print via cups. I have a HP LJ4 attached to the Linux box that worked great before the upgrade. I have 2 XP clients. Now from the Windows side, I get the printer status showing 'access denied, unable to

Greetings, all: I'm having trouble working out a printing problem between my Samba box, and my Windows 2000 client. Here's the background: Network: Home network with a Slackware 8 box running Samba, 1 Windows 2000 client, 1 Windows 98 client, and a LEAF Project firewall providing Internet access. The Samba server should only be available to local clients. Systems: Slackware box:

My user observable errors seem to now be gone but I am seeing some behavior that may need to be looked at. There are error messages in Ethereal and in the logs like "_spoolss_getprinterdataex: Invalid keyname [DsDriver]". First I'll give the brief history and then more details below. I started a new install on FreeBSD 5.1 using samba 2.2.8. I compiled with CUPS (1.1.19). Printer is

I'm having a little problem with a HP 8550 Laser Color printer shared under samba. The printer works fine with local prints, I can see the resource printer from Win2k2 explorer. I install the remote printer in a W2k2 workstation, windows ask me for drivers, and then, I installed them. The problem is: when I'm triying to access the printer, windows told me: "Access denied, can

Hi, Having a very odd problem with a printer that I've had up and running for over a year now with no previous issues. There have been no software or hardware updates recently that should have affected it. The printer is managed via CUPS and its details are loaded from the CUPS printcap. At some point late on the afternoon of the 11th, samba started rejecting print jobs sent to it.

I've got Samba 2.2.3 running as a PDC for some Win9x and WinNT clients. Everything seems to be fine except that occasionally (but rather often, at least every second day) printing from one of the NT-clients is impossible. In the log file it says (word wrap here in the editor): [2002/02/26 18:04:21, 0] printing/printing.c:print_job_start(952) print_job_start: insufficient permissions to open

I am unable to 'Apply' new drivers to any printers shared on my Samba 2.2.7a machine from a Windows XP machine. I log in as root, the drivers upload to print$ without a hitch. But when I click 'Apply' or 'OK' to close the printer properties dialog box, I get 'Cannot set printer properties. Access denied'. The printer is a Hewlett Packard LaserJet 4100TN, the driver

Hi there Brian! I've seen your email on one of the samba mailing list. This has been my problem for a long time.

If anybody could help this would be much appreciated... Samba being used with Domain security, as a printer server with an NT 4.0 PDC and BDC.

Hi, I have a problem printing on a RHEL3 server running samba-3.0.9-1.3E.1. The server is configured to authenticates users using a nearby Windows 2000 Active Directory server.

hello, I'm trying to migrate a rather simple configuration from a Samba 2.0.6 to Samba 2.2.8 , on an AIX system. smb.conf stays exactly the same & checked with testparm.

Hello all, I have been trying set up a linux box as a print server for our mixed windows network. It has samba working - everybody can see it & a shared directory. I installed cups & that too seems to be fine - printing test pages from the web interface works perfectly. But i can't get them to talk. I think this is mostly as i can't find a decent howto & so am poking

But in real life it does not, it continues to spool indefinitely. If i run a batch file from a client workstation to print continuously. It means the request to print is made
