Hello all, I'm running Samba 3.5.5 on Debian 5, and following the documentation as closely as I can to install drivers using rpcclient. I first install the driver on a Windows 7 x65 workstation, then use rpcclient/smbclient to fetch the files. I then use smbclient to put those on the print$ share of the Samba server. So far, so good. Then I use rpcclient to add those files, and that

Running Samba 3.0.5-0 (backports) and Debian 3.0. I keep seeing this in my syslog, and was wondering what it meant. I can't seem to find a solution using google.

Hi, I'm trying to add a printer driver to samba 2.2.7, part of the RedHat 9 distro. I have all the associated files under print$/W32X86 (I verified that they were where I thought they were from samba's POV by looking via smbclient). Below is the output from a getdriver command issued to a W2K PDC to get the names of all the required files for the particular printer: [Windows NT x86]

Hello, when i send the SIGHUP signal to Samba, then Samba won't load the printers from CUPS. I need to shutdown Samba and start it again. Now when i'am running cupsaddsmb i got the following errors(this error occours in 3.5.x but not in 3.2.x): server-p:/# cupsaddsmb -H server-p -v edv01 edv02 edv03 Kennwort f?r root erforderlich, um ?ber SAMBA auf server-p zugreifen zu k?nnen:

Hi, I am using samba with NT 4.0 and Solaris. I got LPRng working with Samba. But, downloading of drivers from the server still deosn't work. Do I *need* to user rpcclient to install drivers on server ? I have already copied drivers to $print/W32X86 directory. I tried using rpcclient with adddriver command. But it gave following errors. rpcclient $> adddriver "Windows NT x86"

Hello, I have set up a cups print server and would like to offer Point'n'Print functionnality for the windows computer clients. So, i've followed informations from the man page of cupsaddsmb as resumed below: -configure smb.conf -add x86 and x64 PS drivers (from x86 and x64 windows 2008 installs). -add x86 and x64 CUPS drivers (from cups SVN) I then launch cupsaddsmb using the

Dear list, I've upgraded my server from Etch to Lenny and now the printer (HP LaserJet 6P) does not work any more through Samba. Printing a testpage via http://server:631 works perfectly so I skip giving details about the CUPS setup. Also lpstat reports the printer working # lpstat -a HP_LaserJet_6P accepting requests I tried to rerun cupsaddsmb. The driver files are copied to the

Hi Jerry Carter and list members, The post below was rejected by the list moderator as too big. That cost me four days and now I am really anxious for positive feedback from rpcclient experts either in the field or at samba.org. It was too big because I included a listing of STDERR and STDOUT from setting debug level to 10 in step #4 of install_printer_drivers.pl. I have trimmed it down by

I can't even get cupsaddsmb to work right. I followed the configuration instructions from the documentation, and my smb.conf matches what the cupsaddsmb man page says. I am getting extremely frustrated with this and not being able to allow clients to download drivers from Samba. With cupsaddsmb, this is the error I am receiving when it gets to this point, over and over: Running command:

As an update to fix the badlock vulnerability I applied some updates to our (RHEL5-based) samba printer server last night, taking it from version 0:3.5.10-0.109.el5_8 to 0:3.6.23-12.el5_11 (rpm package versions). After this change attempts to add printer drivers with cupsaddsmb produced errors of the form: Running command: rpcclient localhost -N -A /tmp/cupsc7GVnF -c 'adddriver

Hi all, This is a re-post of a question I originally submitted 10/22. There have been no responses, so I am trying again as this problem has us stalled in our tracks re managing printer drivers with rpcclient. >>I am getting a fatal Signal 11 event when I use >>install_printer_drivers.pl on AIX 4.3.3 with Samba 2.2.1a so I would like >>to bring you up to date on my

I'm not having any luck using the rpcclient adddriver functions to install windows point-and-print drivers into print$. The add printer wizard fails after copying the files to \\SERVERX\print $\W32X86 so I am trying to install using rpcclient to see if it tells me anything more. I'm using the cups v6 drivers to test with. I get the same thing trying my HP Laserjet 2100 drivers.

I have built a new CUPS print server on Ubuntu 8.04 server for our office (used apt-get to download the CUPS v 1.3.7 and Samba v3.0.28a packages) as a replacement for our existing Suse CUPS print server and I want to use the cupsaddsmb tool to set up printer drivers for download by PCs rather than using the Add Printer Wizard method which we have used on our older CUPS print server. After some

Hi, i try to set up a samba print server with cups, but when i use the cupsaddprinter command, all copy start & stop with no problem, and when the rppcclient command is launch to add the printer driver, it fails and show me this error: # cupsaddsmb -v -U root -a [...many lines...] result was WERR_INVALID_PRINTER_NAME I try to find somthing on the net and other ML & i find this to

Hi All, My problem is that when I "connect" a printer by right-clicking it on \\smbhost\printers (on a Windows client), it seems to install the printer fine (without error), but I can't print (it seems to print, no error message or so, but it never makes it to the printer). I was able to install the printer drivers both via the Windows GUI (wizard) and via rpcclient (please see
