similar to: parameter default devmode missing in man pages and other docs

Hi there. I've been some days dealing with printing problems in Win2k clients, having a Samba 2.2.5 parched with "parse_sec.patch" as a printer server. When I try to print anything, explorer.exe dies. Sometimes dies spoolsv.exe, or sometimes all the system locks (it may be because explorer do not restart). It happens to all my Win2k clients with Service Pack 2, and only when using

Samba 2.2.7a (built from samba RPM's) with LPRng print subsystem. I've been having troubles with some print drivers which fail to work properly when uploaded to the samba server whether devmode gets left as null or a default devmode is used. Some drivers do not leave you in a position where you can "tickle" the driver to generate a devmode with page orientation etc before

Hi. Recently i created a print server with cups 1.2.8 and smbd Version 3.0.24-1.fc5 under a fedora 5 box. I've installed some printer like as HP laserjet 2820, Konica Minolta di2510, konica minolta 2430dl, hp laserjet 2600. Drivers were uploaded with sucess. But i was getting a problem when try to create a device mode for HP laserjet 2600. All others work fine. In clientes with windows 2k,

Our server is a SuSE Linux 7.2 with CVS samba 2.2 branche. Version number is 2.2.pre-4. We updated today. We have a problem with the default devmode in Windows 2000 (SP2) clients. We have uploaded the printerdrivers to the share print$. The Samba printeradministrator is able to change the printer capabilities as memory, trays, papersize. etc. Changes are global: when a user logs in, he sees

Hi all, I have uploaded the printer drivers succesfully on RedHat Linux/ Samba 2.2.4 server. I can download and print without any problems. But when I do Windows API call GetPrinter with PRINTER_INFO_2, the devmode in printer_info is always null. My code looks like HANDLE hPrinter=NULL; PRINTER_DEFAULTS pDefaults; pDefaults.DesiredAccess = PRINTER_ACCESS_USE;

Hi Jerry, hi @all, some users with 3.0.10 with printing patch have problems with old printjobs in her status monitor in windows. Loglevel 10 shows two problems: 1. The devmode for this printer was not set properly (I know, thiswill cause problems). log.smbd: [2005/01/05 14:02:09, 8] rpc_parse/parse_spoolss.c:smb_io_reldevmode(2407) boing, the devmode was NULL 2. A buffer overflow is logged.

Hi all. I'm using wine-20010824 snapshot, and I'm trying to configure WINE PS driver. The setup is a No Windows one, on a RH 6.2 with KDE 2.1 and XFree 4.0.1 I've been successful in having the Printer Dialog showing the Wine Postscript Printer driver in the list, after applying the winespool patch from Takeshima Hidenori (winspool.diff). However, I can wine complaining about not

Hi All I recently began having issues where there would be a runaway SMBD process listed in TOP, having a Pri of around 25, and using 70 to 95% CPU indefinitely. IPTRAF reports around 600kbps constantly in and out from the subject workstation, with nothing going on - on the workstation. This traffic is parallel to the runaway SMBD process ... the traffic dies when the SMBD process is

I am having trouble running an exe that was written in Active State perl. In Windows, I would go to the CLI and type Code: C:\pager\pager.exe cl Passing "cl" as an arguement that passes the file "cl.config" to the pager.exe program. I have not had any success running this in Wine, and I do not know if it is a syntax problem or if Wine does not work with it. I have tried:

Nope, close but no cigar. With 2.2.6Pre2 Word started to behave itself but Outlook acts as though landscape is a foreign concept(i.e everything prints portrait regardless of page setup). Spoolsv also crashes on the Win2K workstations requiring a manual restart of the spooler service. We will downgrade to 2.2.5 and try Jerry's patch. In another message Jerry talks about "running"

Just wanted to say a big *THANKS* to everyone who attended this years virtual SambaXP conference. SerNet did an amazing job of changing from the usual on-site in Goettingen conference to a virtual-only online event. The talks were recorded and should be available soon (I'm sure they'll let us know when) from the SambaXP site. I hope everyone enjoyed it, and now I have a boatload of work

I am really getting into my new Ubuntu Hardy Heron software but wondered if any music lovers amongst you could give me some advice? I heavily use Band in a Box 2008 on the XP side of my machine and have tried to install it, through the wine emulator so I can use it in Ubuntu. I could then, more or less, abandon the XP side on a 90% basic. Something I would very much like to do. Unfortunately BB

Hi Volker, First I apologize for very late reply. I did tests in the meantime... Trust relationships are the option we keep in mind. As trusts are for now bidirectional-full-trust they give us possibility to increase domain size. If we have to split our domain we will split in one domain for users and another for computers (meaning users' MS Windows computers as they need to be included into

Dear Samba users and hackers, I'm excited to announce that SambaXP 2025 will take place on April 9th and 10th on-site in G?ttingen, Germany once again.

Since 2014 I do a tutorial on the first day of the SambaXP conference in G?ttingen, this year due to corona it was a online conference :-(. So I had to do my tutorial also as a online version. This years topic was: building a CTDB-cluster with Samba 4.12 and GlusterFS 7.x. If you are interested in the handout and the Vagrant-box and install-script you will find everything here:

I had that happen to me on w2k. Your spooler service is stopped. I had an invalid print driver entry in Samba and when I printed to any of the printers on my Samba server it would cause the service to stop. To fix it I replaced the printer tdb's and re-installed the drivers. Josh -----Original Message----- From: Klopf, Tom [mailto:Tom.Klopf@mms.gov] Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002
