-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 hi, i currently tried to setup a samba print server which uses cups as default printing system and for some special printers i want to use my own scripts. samba-3.0.0 is linked against libcups and printing via cups and the driver download works perfect. whe i try to specify a special printer with "printing = bsd/lprng/sysv" my own

I've tried building it on a server that I know has pretty much every library possible for a program to need, but I'm still not getting a good samba install. I'm on white-dwarf linux (kernel 2.4.25), gcc 3.3.2, Samba 3.0.2a White-dwarf is home-grown, very much like slackware. When I configure and make and make install, I don't get any errors, but I when I look for some files

Hello, I am running solaris 7 on a sparcstation 5. We want to test out the pdc capablities on this test machine before we deploy this on our network. I installed gcc version 3.2.2. untared the source and did ./configure ; make everything seemed to go fine, but the source dir is over a gig in size now. I did "make install", and ran out of disk space. this is what it was trying

Hi All, Is anybody succeed to run a configuration on a two node clusters with Samba installed on each machine? I compiled two versions on different directories (/usr/local/samba1 and samba2). At this point, I can run 2 samba's on one node in case of failure but problems are on Active Directory authentication for the Fallback node. Any suggestion! I'm running AIX 5.2 with HACMP and

Hi, I ve had some problems printing from NT, I had samba 2.0.3 and every time at the end of document there is a blank paper and I don't know how I can stop this ??? Regards, and thanks in advance for any help Amin.

Hello folks, I'd like to remove all of the old and defunct profile info passes from LLVM. These have been almost entirely supplanted by the BranchProbability and BlockFrequency systems, which are actually on by default, and in use in optimization passes. The old system is not on, and hasn't been touched in years except to do minor build fixes and updates. As far as I'm aware, the

List, I am deploying a number of Samba servers across a WAN. To date I have manually uploaded printer drivers from an XP client to the Samba server. But it's slow, and I systematically upload the same drivers over and over again. I'm not quite sure of the recipe, but I'm sure there must be a way of replicating all the drivers, from a central point, out to the remote servers. Copying

Hi Chandler, I'm a GSoC student working on profiling support (mentor CC'ed). I'm no stranger to the issues with the current system: my original proposal was written without knowledge of the limitations. This is why this list hasn't heard much from me yet. I would like to continue working on profiling support but I'm not attached to ProfileInfo and wouldn't be

Mates, The saga continues, but THANK GOD 'make revert' WORKS. Here is my problem. I am trying to compile 3.0.7 from source and install it on my Mandrake 7.2 box. The gcc compiler is 2.95.3. Here is what I have done: [stop samba] # ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-smbmount # make # make install # /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start Here is what I get: [root@Nemesis david]# tail

Hello, I have a new RH 7.2 installation (kernel 2.4.7-10) with Samba 2.2.1a and I can't print from my Win2K box. I get an "Access denied: unable to connect" error from the printer entry in Windows. The logs don't seem to be helping me. Here's my smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = MYGROUP server string = Samba SMB Server interfaces = 192.168.1.1/24 127.0.0.1/24 hosts

While trying to solve my printer problem, I have come up with another question that Google is not helping me with. What happens to a print job after Samba submits it to Cups? Is it 'finished' even though Cups is still printing it? Is that why my users aren't seeing their print jobs, because Cups has already snatched them and Samba assumes they are done? I would much rather if

Hello, I am using samba to acces a printer on my Linux server from Windows XP Home SP2 clients. It was working very well until yesterday evening. Since yesterday, I can print from the server (with cups) but I can't print from the Windows clients. And all the shared folders are still OK. There is only printing from Windows clients which doesn't work. We changed nothing on the server

I'm trying to use Samba to get access to my Unix printer. Unix System is FreeBSD-2.2-stable, and I'm running the latest port of Samba for FreeBSD-2.2-stable (Samba 2.0.0) from ftp.freebsd.org. I've checked all the references I can find on the web, and can't see the problem. Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong. Under NT (adding remote printer), I see the entry for the

Hi all, I have been having the weirdest network browsing problems on my network the past week. Come to find out the wins.dat file got corrupted. Removing that file fixed everything. Because our systems typically have uptimes measured in months rather than days, and it is difficult for me to restart Samba except as a scheduled task (which I'm afraid to do because there are users who

hello Dirk, thanks for the info. Sorry, im new to the Linux World. I just wanted to ask, will the samba2.....that comes with my RedHat9.2 installation work for what I want to achieve(to connect my LinuxPC to my Windows PC so that I can exchange files between the two?) - im asking so that I dont uninstall Samba2 and begin to have problems installing the new version. Also, you said "it has

I'm still having problems with that memory issue using 3.0.10 with v.2 of the printing patch + the one line patch from Jerome Borsboom. My production server has completely frozen a couple times in the past couple weeks, and did so again this morning. This time before restarting samba I removed the tdb files in /var/lib/samba/printing/* as Jerry mentioned this might help the queue not

Hello! I'm using samba with CUPS printing (with raw passthru) for a long time now and it worked very well. But after upgrading my samba installation from 3.0.2 to 3.0.9, the printjobs (sent from XP Workstations) aren't removed from the joblist anymore. Means: the job is printed correctly, but opening the printqueue on the XP machine still contains the job (not only mine, but jobs from

I have a customer that is using 250 gig drives for his business data. I have been using rsync to keep mirror copies of his data on a second machine. In the last 3 months I have lost 2 of four drives, the last one being the system drive. I have been doing a manual switchover. Each time rsync runs, I copy my samba conf files, passwd, shadow and group files from etc. Has anyone setup a HA

Hello All, I have been trying all afternoon to rebuild the Samba RPM for my Fedora 3 with the MySQL passdb support and from what I can see it only needs the inclusion of "--with-expsam=mysql" in the SPEC file in addition to the regular ones. The problem is that no matter what version of Samba I try to rebuild, it always gice an error at the same place:
