I don't know the final answer BUT if you have something simmilar to a cyber-cafe LAN (I mean, users use all the computers, and maybe some users come back to login with the same name) then you have to install a printer only once in a computer, loging as the administrator and installing drivers. Then what users will have to do is JUST add the printer without installing. I know that it's

For some reason, I cannot get samba (or Win98, depending on how you look at it...) to allow a win98 client to print. I search the list archives, but I didn't find anything similar. So here goes. Symptoms: - Win98 client can access fileshares OK. The printers show up OK as well in network neighbourhood. - On Linux, printing (lprng) works OK. - In win98, e.g. dir >

Hi, I have an issue in dos printing. My okidata dot matrix printer is directly connected to linux box and is a shared printer in samba . I am using lprng. My problem is with dos printing. When i print, it spools first indicated in the windows printer window. It takes a minute before it actually sends to the linux box, you will see an indicator of spooled bytes. Once it is submitted it prints

Hi all. I'm trying to use Samba to replace an old Windows print server, and everything works just like a charm - almost... There's one thing, which prevents my organization from accepting this new printerserver, and that is that I'm unable to activate and save the "Enable advanced printing features" setting for the printers - this is used to allow for printing multiple

While this doesn't relate specifically to Samba, I need to do this in a netlogon .bat file in a Samba domain. In my network, I have a printer hooked to a JetDirect so that it is a TCP/IP printer. Is there a way I can automatically have this printer mapped/added when the user is logged on? -- Andrew Gaffney

Hi there Looking at the archives I didn't find a solution to the following problem we have here: Printing from our linux-server (wagner) to an intel printserver (PS652D8F) doesn't work. Here's the stuff we know/tried: wagner:~ # smbclient -L //PS652D8F -N added interface ip=10.0.0.10 bcast=10.0.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Got a positive name query response from 10.0.0.40 ( 10.0.0.40

I am continuing to struggle with a strange SAMBA Printing problem. Here are the details: 1) NT based clients can log on as guests or as users and can print in either case with no problems. 2) Windows 9x clients can log in as either guest or as users and can access shares with no problems. 3) Windows 9x clients attempting to print directly to the SAMBA printer hang the print process and

I'm have a remote printer installed in the cups. I shared the printer and it prints OK using the wine notepad. But I have a old application that prints only if have direct access to a lpt1 named port. We can test executing the program wine start.exe and run the command: echo 'test' > lpt1 that returns: File not found I tried to create the rule

Hi all, I have had this issue for a really long time that I had a workaround for, but this workaround has caused more harm than good. The issue is when mapping 'LPT1' I know this is a local LPT port, etc and I know that non-administrators cannot map this port. The port is needed by a legacy application, and it cannot be changed until this application goes the way of all things. So,

hi all, I'm using the official wine-20041201-0.1 on Sue 9.1 (i386). I used winetools 2.10 to facilitate my wine installation and it was a godsand. I have installed Office 2000 and so far so good, but I like to extend my wine functionality just a bit more. I like to install Acrobat 5 (not reader) with PDFWriter on my wine installation. The problem I have is that, during the

I am unable to add drivers to network printer. I am logged in as a user who is allowed to write to those shares. But when ever I right click on the Properties of the printer when viewing \\DC\Printers and Faxes\PrinterName, Most of the tabs are disabled. I was able to install the drivers some time ago. But not any more. The more weird thing is that for some of the network printers, the Ports tab

No, I don't.. I'm sorry I wasn't that clear in my last mail. I'm running Samba only as file server. I haven't installed a printer so far on Samba. The printers are installed on the Windows 2000 server. This server is a Domaincontroller, File- and Printerserver. My problem is that any other pc has normal traffic rates to the samba server, but the server is very slow. One

On our old Novell-2.2 server we had a program called CAPTURE to redirekt the printer output of DOS programs to the network printer. (Some old DOS programs only know LPT1:) Now i am locking for a CAPTURE replacement for our new Samba server. I tested PRINDIR Version 9.0 and LPTTOFL Version 1.0 out of a DOS-Box within WIN 3.11 and WIN 95. Both programs work fine with pure DOS but have timing

Hi, We've got a fairly simple samba setup (no ldap/winbind etc) and until recently everything worked fine (using samba-2.2.5). But after switching to samba-2.2.6 w2k-clients fail to run the netlogon-scripts. When i look at the client it says: logonserver=\\<workstationname> BTW. The output of "nmblookup -S CPB" (to me) seems to say that CPB is the logonserver. querying CPB

Hi, I have posted this before, and was told to read the documentation (which I already had in detail) since I have been looking everywhere (mainly google) with no joy. If possible I want to tell wine I have a printer installed (write to file printer if possible) as I do not have a printer but have a windows application that requires a printer to be installed to run, could anyone advise me on any
