hi, since I upgraded some winxp-pro sp2 client to sp3, my samba-shared printers are no-longer usable :-/ With sp3, if I run notepad and choose the men? File-Print, the "print" window hangs and does not show any printer for about 1 minute! The same thing happens when I click on the men? Start-settings-Printer and faxes. With sp2, everything works correctly and I can browse all my

Is it possible to use some kind of netlogon script to add a printer? net use \\server\printert ??

While this doesn't relate specifically to Samba, I need to do this in a netlogon .bat file in a Samba domain. In my network, I have a printer hooked to a JetDirect so that it is a TCP/IP printer. Is there a way I can automatically have this printer mapped/added when the user is logged on? -- Andrew Gaffney

How do you manage printers on Windows workstations? What I mean, suppose you have many classrooms, different printers (which sometimes change) in these classroms - how do you manage which workstation (or a group of them) will use which printer? So far I've been using WPKG for that - as I described here: http://wpkg.org/wiki/index.php/Printer_configuration But somehow I feel it

I don't know the final answer BUT if you have something simmilar to a cyber-cafe LAN (I mean, users use all the computers, and maybe some users come back to login with the same name) then you have to install a printer only once in a computer, loging as the administrator and installing drivers. Then what users will have to do is JUST add the printer without installing. I know that it's

Hi list I'm wondering if it and how it is possible to add printers to a workstation with a logon script like mounting shares. I can't find anything about this on the inetnet so is this possible? regards lm

Hi all, Just a quick question about login scripts for a large number of users who change rooms a lot. I have several rooms each with a printer, and nearly a thousand users divided into two main groups - pupils and teachers who change rooms on a routine basis. Is it possible to set up multiple login scripts that would be executed in sequence i.e. run by user is %u, and machine is %m is it

I'm seeing errors accessing samba shares accompanied by the message "The local device name is already in use" fairly frequently on several machines around our building. It doesn't seem to happen with NT shares. Our NT logon script executes a 'net use' command to map the Samba share as a network drive; is this just a symptom of a share already being manually mapped on

For Win2K, I've been using RunDLL32 printui.dll,printuientry to do a bunch of different printer related stuff (most notably, mapping printers and setting the default). Looks like NT4 doesn't have the same stuff. Is there anything classier I can use than NET USE under NT4 (without downloading something like Kixstart)? Thanks for your help. ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| |

Cups 1.2.7 Debian Etch with Samba 3.0.24 Clients: WinXP SP3 (with Firewall completely off for testing) When I define a printer specifically in smb.conf, they show up as shared printers in WinXP. But when I follow the normal way (see below) to load all from cups they don't. I followed mainly the latest SAMBA-HOWTO (chapter 21-22) The only error I see in log.smbd when accessing the

I downoaded flash9 for linux. Installed it: ls /usr/lib64/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.9/plugins/ flashplayer.xpt libflashplayer.so libnullplugin.so However seamonkey is not doing flash yet. Does it not work in 64 bit? Did I miss something? Anyone else have flash going on amd64? I thought you put the files in the above directory and restart. Didn't work for me. Jerry

I am new to this mailing list. I apologize if any needed information is missing. I know this is a bit much to ask of wine's current serial port implementation, I am hoping someone has maybe figured this out already? Or can help me further the debugging process, I'd rather be part of the solution then simply another complaint about wine's serial port. ***** problem description

Hi I have a samba server 3.0.0-15 acting as a PDC on a Windows domain (98, XP and 2000). Is there a way to automatically install printers to windows clients when users log in? Maybe by running a logon script... Thank you in advance. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo! HotJobs

hello i think always the same problem :( so i would like to put drivers on my samba server in $print in howto they said in section "Add printer wizard driver installation" chap 20 : " Do not click on Yes! Instead, click on No in the error dialog. Now you will be presented with the printer properties window. From here, the way to assign a driver to a printer is open. ->

Hi, I just did a "make install" on Win7x64 using Mingw64 and it dropped off the files in "C:\Program Files (x86)\LLVM". That's almost right, but nicer would be if the 64-bit build was dropped off in "C:\Program Files\LLVM". I am fairly confident that it is me who is doing something wrong because I simply do this: (retrieve trunk version of LLVM, Clang,

Hi all, I'm having a very strange problem with printers under 3.0.10, running on an up to date Gentoo 2005.0 box. Essentially, if I install a Samba-networked printer on one of our NT workstations as "administrator", it doesn't show up for all the other users of that particular machine. It's as if they don't have any printers installed. What's more, none of these

[crossposting to Samba, CUPS and Linuxprinting mailing lists...] Hi, I have updated the Draft for the Printing Chapter of the new Samba 3.0 HOWTO-Collection. It is available at http://www.linuxprinting.org/kpfeifle/SambaPrintHOWTO/ A PDF version (for convenient printing) is also there. This is from the document's Changelog:

Hello Is it possible to create a samba logoff script. I currently use netlogon for a logonscript. I also want a logoff scipt to allow me to back certain files up once a user logs off. Is this possible? If so how? -- REGARDS, Andy

Hi, Can you please tell me if swfdec has flash9 support? Thank you.

Nobody who can help use with this issue? A developer already began to fix it 3/4 year ago, but never created a patch that finally fix the whole problem. -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Re: [Samba] Samba 3.4 / 3.5: Printer settings not available for normal users Datum: Tue, 18 Jan 2011 09:32:58 +0100 Von: Marc Muehlfeld <Marc.Muehlfeld at medizinische-genetik.de> An: Jack
