Hi! I'm having problems with printing with Samba 2.2.5 and WinXP. I have samba setup as a PDC and have 3 printers: HP LaserJet 5000N, HP LaserJet 8550DN and HP DesignJet 1055CM. I used WinXP to upload the drivers for the printers to XP clients and to 98 clients, and all went fine. I downloaded the lastest PCL6 drivers for the Laserjet printers and the HPGL2/RTL driver for the Designjet. I

I've compile a Samba 4.0.9 for x86_64 with the following options: CPPFLAGS="-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_GNU_SOURCE -march=atom -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" \ samba_cv_HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY_TZ=yes \ samba_cv_HAVE_IFACE_IFCONF=yes \ samba_cv_HAVE_IFACE_IFREQ=yes \ ac_cv_have_setresuid=yes \ ac_cv_have_setresgid=yes \ ac_cv_file__proc_sys_kernel_core_pattern=yes \

I manage a bunch of workstations at the Wendell Free Library. They are all diskless, boot via PXE and mount all of their file systems via NFS from a server. All of the machines are 32-bit and run CentOS (fully up-to-date running 5.10). There are two printers with queues managed on the server. The server 'shares' these printers on the local LAN (eg with all of the workstations).

Hi: I am new to the Samba world and I am having problems with printing. I have Samba installed on a Solaris 8 server. I can see the Samba shares and the printer (lasersys) in Windows Explorer. I have installed the printer on my workstation (NT 4.0) using the Windows 'Add Printer' wizard. However, when I send a print job to the printer (Wordpad:File > Print) the job never gets to the

We have a samba 2.2.3a-12.3 for Debian running, and something odd in printing. We use CUPs as linux print server. When we print from a w2k station, prints come out the printer, but the printer window reports a cycle of messages: - initializing printer - opening printer - failed to open, retrying what can be the cause? parts of the smb.conf: ============== [global] printcap

Dear All, after changing my Linux box to Samba 2.2.3a and CUPS I'm struggling with some probleme :

Hi all, I have set up a printer in cups and I can see it with lpstat -a, and I can print to it. I put what I thought was the appropriate stuff in smb.conf, and yet no printer shows up to the NT client I'm testing with, or in smbclient -L output. Any ideas at all? Here is the relevant info: ### smb.conf excerpts ### [global] ... printing = cups printcap name = cups printcap cache

I run a fairly busy samba server that only serves up users' home directory. I am running Samba v3.0.20 under Solaris 10 on a Sun v440. I'm seeing a large number of calls to '/usr/bin/lpstat -v'. These are probably occuring everytime a new client connects, but I'm not positive. The server does not have any printers attached to it, has no entries in /etc/printers.conf, and

I am driving a Suse 8.2 linux with cups 1.1.18 and samba 2.2.7a. The problem: The host serves several printers via cups. If some jobs are in one of the queues "lpq -Pprinter" or "lpstat -o printer" shows up the complete listing. Fine. Connected to the same print queue from a Windows (XP/NT/98/2k) box I cannot see the complete listing. Sometimes I see some of the jobs, most of

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

Hello, I am new to Samba. I run FreeBSD 2.2.5-stable and Version 1.9.17p4. I would like my FreeBSD server to act as a DOMAIN Logon. And, for example if user riso logges in (using his FreeBSD box password) his /home/riso should be automatically maped to G: or something. The error message I get is: "You have entered an incorrect password, or access to your logon server has been denied."

Ok. Hi everybody. It's my first posting here. If I make something wrong, please notice me . And excuse me for my evil english (I will improve :-) ) . I'm trying to upgrade samba from 2.2.4 to 3.0.14 version and I would like to use the same smb.conf that I had. But something looks wrong in printing system , there are a lot of new options and I don't know why my old parameters

Hello, I'm trying to get priting working from a Windows XP box to a printer that's been shared via SAMBA. I can browse the printer fine, and can print fine from linux, but not from Windows.

Dave Fernandes I propose a much needed article on using cups from the command line.? This article, fully written and used by myself will automate the process of adding printers to any desktop or server just by running a script file.? It will teach you lpadmin, lpstat, how to setup and install drivers for printers and how to automate the process. I find this useful on client sites (who love linux
