Hi all, Thought I'd post this to the list as I found a better way of doing it. Nice to have for posterity. Please include it in the source of samba if you wish - I hereby license it under GPL 1. install ghostscript (most distributions include it anyway) 2. put the following in the file /usr/sbin/pdfprint and make it executable by whatever your guest user for samba is : #!/bin/bash

Hi, I try to create PDF files with an modified script from Buchan Milne and have some problems with the Jobname var %J. Because it is better for the users to find an file with an similar name as the original document I'm looking for a way to read out %J, cut some unnessasary stuff and use the rest as new file name. The problem is: In %J in some circumstances is not the complete Jobname as

This is a snip of my smb.conf file. This share will create a pdf file and deposit the output in a samba share for retrieval. It works. On the client side you add a printer pointing to the smbpdf share and give it a PS printer driver. When you print to this printer(smbpdf) it creates the pdf file. I'd like to change one thing and this thing is golden. When printing a file called file.txt the

Hello, I have an issue that I can't sort out. Issue: Just applied the latest round of patches that brought me up to this Samba version and suddenly end-users are being prompted for authentication when attempting to access shares on this CentOS box from their Windows Vista, 7x86, and 7x64 workstations. Problem: I am new to Samba and seem to not be connecting the dots Layer 1: I can ping

Hai Koenraad, Just a suggest, what about and email adres to create your pdf files. thats what im doing here. like companypaper at domain.tld , which generates from excel doc etc to a pdf file with companypaper. or plain at domain.tld same as above but no company logo. or multipdf at domain.tld merge mutiple pdf files to 1. ( or multiple doc/xls files ) and this is much faster for us

Hi, I have trouble with the "force user" statement in 2.2.8. I'am using a small perl script to print into a PDF file via a printerdriver on a Win-client. It's basically a ps2pdf. This script must run as root, or it'll crash (don't know why, looks like a Ghostscript error, but thats not the point). Therefor I inserted a force user = root in my conf. Then I have a strange

Package: dovecot Version: 0.99.10.4-2 I am accessing my IMAP folder on my ~/Maildir using mutt via Dovecot and I have this problem whereby mutt incorrectly reports I have new mail in a "mailboxes" polled mailbox. This happens all the time when I press the key bound to change mailbox. I use courier IMAP at school, and I have not experienced this problem. A bug with dovecot or mutt?

we're using samba 2.2.9 as PDC.

sorry, if i post again, but at first time i did not get an answer :-( problem: when printing from windows clients to samba 2.2.9 PDC, there are strange entries in the smbd logfile: e.g.: smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) notebook01 (192.168.10.29) could'nt find service lpb8-a4-ra the strange thing is, that the service is names "lpb8-a4-raw". also the same with the other

Hi there, I'm converting a dialplan callback type application to fastagi as I'm hitting the buffers with respects to getting useful results from CDRs. It works by a spool call file triggering a Local extension, that extension then does the first dial to a client. I dial to a local context from the spool file as I need proper return codes as in ${DIALSTATUS} which are not available

Hi all The printing via Samba+Cups has stopped working. I'm using Mandrake 10.0 Official as a Samba server for file sharing and printing on a Windows network. Printing from a WindowsXP client to the Samba server now fails and I don't know why it has suddenly stopped, it used to work. File sharing still works okay. There are on no errors logged on the Linux Samba box, the Windows

I am having some trouble with dovecot 1.2.12 and some namespace issues, or at least that's what I think is the issue. I setup a virtual mailhosting using mysql and postfix. I can receive email and send email without a problem, but when I use mutt to sign in to dovecot, I can't list any Folders, it see's INBOX but it doesn't see any mail. I generally try to not post my problems

Trying to set up a mailserver to run exim4, dovecot2, (clamav procmail or similar not yet installed) on a virtual machine & access it from various hosts mostly using Mutt. So far no attempt at encryption although there are some pem files from a previous attempt & some evidence from the mutt debug file they may be being used . So far I have attempted to set up dovecot to by accessed by

Hello everyone, I wrote an email a couple of days ago, but haven't received an answer yet. Perhaps it was a bit confusing, so I'll try again. How can I make sure that NetBIOS name lookups work in the config file? I mean the %m macro. What is the command I can test it with? Because I have a feeling that this macro works only sometimes. For example I have a setting of log file =
