I'm having trouble with driver downloads to Win98 clients from a Cups server/ red hat 8.0 (2.4.18-26.8.0) cups-1.1.18 samba 2.2.8 netatalk-1.6.1 I have windows clients successfully installing and printing to printers over samba and macs over netatalk.

This was the answer to a question posed on the Samba list almost a year ago. The following regarding Windows 98 printer names seemed to get lost: In windows 98, printer name: ---------------------------- > 13 characters: printer offline <= 13 but > 8: ppd doesn't download, can print with adobe drivers <= 8: full functionality I also tried an 8.3 printername: testtest.tst, which

I have som trouble with rpcclient.. I have all my adobe-drivers in /usr/share/cups/drivers/ and a directory in /etc/samba/drivers for the targetdrivers after i run cupsaddsmb. But when i run cupsaddsmb, directorys named Win40 and W32X86 in /etc/samba/drivers is created. And the files from /usr/share/cups/drivers in the directorys. But when cupsaddsmb is running "adddriver..." it

Hi All, I am experiencing a problem with using the rpcclient "adddriver" command, the error response says something like: " lsa_io_sec_qos: length c does not match size 8" I received this message with debug level 3 and the adddriver command. How should I interpret this message? I thought it might be a dos filename (i.e., 8.3) issue since my driver filenames are over 8

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.

Hello, My commandline looks like this: rpcclient localhost -d4 -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86" "HPLJ4050:PSCRIPT5.DLL:HPLJ4050.PPD:PS5UI.DLL:PSCRIPT.HLP:NULL:RAW:PSCRIPT.NTF,PSCRPTFE.NTF"' The output is: Serverzone is -3600 Initialising global parameters params.c:pm_process() - Processing configuration file "//etc/samba/smb.conf" Processing section

The drivers need to be copied to the directory returned by the "getdriverdir" rpc command. On my system the output looks like: rpcclient $> getdriverdir rpc_pipe_bind: Remote machine localhost pipe \spoolss fnum 0x772d

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"

I wonder if someone could help me with this problem I am getting. I have been trying to get printer drivers installed onto my Samba server (v3.0.10 FC3) for a few days now and have finally hit this problem which I cannot fathom. I run this command to copy the drivers from w32x86 into the '3' directory: rpcclient -U'root' -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86" \

Hello, I'm trying to use rpcclient to add a driver to a Samba 3.0.25 running on Gentoo. When I run the script below, rpcclient prints out the same message as if "--help" was submitted as the only switch. #!/bin/bash -x RPC="/usr/local/samba/bin/rpcclient" ARCH='Windows NT R4000' #ARCH='Windows NT x86' DRIVER='HP LaserJet 4Si/4Si MX

Hi, samba 2.2.8a freshly compiled cups 1.1.19final-1 (debian) while using cupsaddsmb, all runs well until adddriver, when rpcclient returns a cryptic NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_DEVICE.

Here is some more information. ===8<=== cupsaddsmb -a -v Running command: smbclient //localhost/print\$ -N

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, I'm trying to add a Windows NT/2000 OKI C5100 print driver to a Samba 2.2.3a server. I've been told that this driver does some server-side stuff, so I'll have to use 'adddriver' in rpcclient. I've read the manual page for rpcclient, and I printed out a 'Windows 2000 Printer Test Page' to get all the relevant information. This is probably just something

I am developing a print server for a client, and I need to make the ability to add and configure print servers as simple as possible. So far, cups and samba are top notch, but there are two problems I have. One, I need to restart the samba service every time I add a printer. Two, I need to log in via console or SSH to run cupsaddsmb, and I need to then authenticate. I was wondering if there was

I'm trying add drivers as detailed in chapter 18 (Classical Printing Support) in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection HEAD/3.0.

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]
