similar to: Samba 3.0 / Cups - Shared Printers vanishing

Hi, I am running Samba 3.0.1 on a Debian/Sid machine. I have installed winbind to access the AD of the local network, which I want to use for UNIX logons. wbinfo -u shows all the users of the AD, but "getent passwd" only shows the contents of the file /etc/passwd. I have been following the instruction for winbind (Chapter 21) in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection. Any comments would be

Hello all, I've done this before before so I'm a bit confused, but I've upgraded from 2.2 to 3.0.4 on a debian woody box (samba 3.0.4 from backports.org). I also have cups 1.1.20 backport as well. I've set up printing using cups (should be simple right?) but no printers appear when I browse the computer from a W2k machine. rpcclient -c "enumprinters" gives me "No

Hi, I am trying to prepare downloadable printer drivers for Windows-Clients with Samba 3.0.0-final. Everything worked fine so far. But I found no way to add the printer driver files to the samba database. The method using the Add Printer Wizard in W2k did not work for me. This is what I tried: linux4:/# rpcclient -U'root%secret' -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86"

Hello Dario, With `printcap name = /etc/printcap`, may we know the permission and context of /etc/printcap file, thank you. ls -al /etc/printcap; cat /etc/printcap; -- Regards, Jones Syue | 薛懷宗 QNAP Systems, Inc.

I have two computers, one with a HP printer on it and one with a Samsung printer on it. Both systems have their respective pritnters listed under system-config-printer and have "enabled" "accepting jobs" and "shared" checked. Up to a few days ago this worked fine. Suddenly I can't see either printer from the other machine and as far as I know nothing has

Hi [Samba]s I have RedHat 8.0, and have installed a compiled CUPS 1.1.19pre4 and Samba 3.0 (latest this week from CVS). It all compiles and installs OK with CUPS support in Samba, but no printers show up (according to smbclient -L or from windoze) when "printing=cups" is used. It is OK if another form of printing is used, for example "printing=sysv". A reversion to Samba

After update my PDC server from Centos 5.5 to 5.11 and then samba 3.5 to 3.6.22 all work fine, except printers: all CUPS printers shared are not visible and usable from clients. If I put manually each printer (like suggest here[1]) into smb.conf, all printers manually added are visible and usable (this is my workaround for now). In smb.conf I have set: load printers = yes

Hi all, I set up a samba server as PDC and counfigured one local printer connected to the samba server's parallel port and another jetdirect pritner with ip 192.168.0.10:9100 using the CUPS WEB INERFACE. Both were working fine and I could print from windwos clients also. Samba server was configured on a test system. So saturday evening I shutdown the system and today when I started the

We're using a couple of HP printers (2200, 4200, 3390) using the HP PCL 6 printer driver. Printer drivers are installed on the samba (3.0.24) box, connecting, driver installation and printing work OK. Problem: using the same driver version with the printer shared by a windows box gives some additional options like - brochure printing - putting serveral pages on one sheet Any Idea why

Hello there, We're using a reasonably large network of linux boxes, about 6 of them offering printing services through CUPS. This has worked remarkably stably for the last months, but we've got one lasting problem with Samba that someone may have a hint to offer. We use an smbd on one of the linux boxes that offers the shared CUPS printers to the windows clients on the network. Now

I recently added a printer to cups and the samba name is wrong. Anyone know how I can fix it?

Hi, I am using Samba 3.0.1 under Debian Unstable (Kernel 2.4.22). (But also tried this with 2.2.8 with the same results) I use the command "smbclient -L netbios_name -Uname%pw" to list the shares of one of the servers of an ADS Domain. Unfortunately only about 30% of the shares of this particular server appear in the list. In windows all shares are visible. I used the same account in

Hello, I just finished to read chapter 22 of the samba howto. This chapter explains very well how printing from a win client via samba and cups work. If I understood it right, printing a file from windows to a non postscript printer via cups driver, samba an cups works like this: - application prints generating an EMF file ( windows spooler ) - the cups ( or adobe ) printer driver converts

Since updating from 4.5 to 4.6 yesterday, I am getting a lot of CUPS errors. The error.log file is filling up with these messages: get_printer_attrs: resource name '/printers/printers' no good! And the access.log seems to be being polled often too, even in the absence of any print jobs submitted. On my network the CUPS-handled printer is exported from Samba. Given that the Samba

I've had this problem for a while, but only recently have I realized that I better fix it soon! I compile my own Wine out of git. Currently, I'm running wine-0.9.29-g5441536 but this issue appeared long before that. Moreover, I stopped being able to print between Wine updates, so I don't think it is anything to do with changes in Wine's code. The simplest way to reproduce my

Hi All, I'm trying to get samba to work with a CUPS printer setup. Unfortuantely I'm falling over at the first hurdle. I've installed samba 3.0.12 from sources and I've a redhat 9.0 box running CUPS 1.1.71. I've installed the following smb.conf file:- [global] load printers=yes printings=cups printcap name=cups passdb backend = tdsam [printers] comment = All Printers path
