similar to: Windows printer driver setup - editing .TDB files

Hi there. I'm using samba 3.0.2 as a printserver. It's been working for ages and I upgraded it the other day to see if it fixed this problem I've been having trying to get printer drivers stored onto the server. The mechanism for uploading drivers seems to be working fine but I've recently got two new printers: an HP laserjet4200tn & and OKI c5100. No matter what I seem to

The following is a method that works for me, I don't necessarily expect it to work for others, and I'd value any

Hi, I've set up a printer called "UREW-EDV" using the cups webinterface. After that an enumprinters give the following output: rpcclient $> enumprintershp LaserJet 1320 PCL 6 flags:[0x800000] name:[\\server\UREW-EDV] description:[\\server\UREW-EDV,,Netzwerkdrucker-EDV] comment:[Netzwerkdrucker-EDV] Next step is uploading a driver using APW:

Hi all, I've just realized that using Windows APW (Wizard)it would be possible to upload/install my usb-printer drivers shared on my linux samba server (2.2.1a). Tried doing so ,but came across lot of failure messages like 'Windows could not install driver ....' in the final step of the wizard where it asks for drivers. afore is my smb.conf ------------------------

Greetings, We're running samba 3.0.23 (ADS domain member) and cups 1.2.2 on debian sarge to serve printing to XP clients. I have a user with the required priveleges to install and set print driver options using the Add Printer Wizard: # net rpc rights list 'SOMEDOMAIN\suarezry' SeMachineAccountPrivilege SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege SeBackupPrivilege SeRestorePrivilege

The environment is FC5, Samba V3.0.24-4. I'm trying to set up the print$ share. From an XP SP2 client I navigate to the "Printers and Faxes" folder showing from the Samba server. Following the directions from the howto, I right click on one of the printers etc etc. The driver does upload to the share, I can see it there on the server, but when the APW wizard closes and returns

Hi , I'm trying to add printers drivers to a Samba server 2.2.8a . with the APW ( add printer wizard method ) . So I set up the PRINT$ share and subfolder. Connected to the samba server with a 2000 ( server ) client and tried to add printers driver using the wizard but got the error . "unable to instal intel ,win nt or 2000 driver, operation could not be completed ."

Hello all, I have been using the latest edition of "Using Samba" to set up a Samba server in our local school. Everything has been working great thus far. I've been asked to get printers going, so I thought I would share the printers using Samba, and have the clients 'connect' to the printers and get the drivers from the server. This works fine if I install, say, a

Hello all, We have a Samba box set up as our primary campus print server, running CUPS 1.1.19 and Samba 3.3.0. Our primary interface for adding printers is the Add Printer Wizard. I am finding very slow response while adding/modifying/deleting printers. Making changes to any of the settings for a printer (default tray, driver, etc) can take 20-40 seconds or will sometimes timeout, requiring a

Hi, I'm using samba 3.3.15 as domain member in an w2k8 ad. We're using the w2k3/xp add printer wizard to add a printer to the server. Since the update from 3.2.15 to 3.3.15 the apw fails when clicking on the "finish" button. At the same time a smb panic occurs and fills the smbd log with the lines below.

Unfortunately I didn’t seem to have saved one of those big gencache.tdb files (we don’t currently see them). Or at least I can’t seem to find them now… A while ago when we first discovered this I posted a message: https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2017-December/212577.html <https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2017-December/212577.html> I now notice that I never replied to a

Background: FREEBSD 11.2 - SAMBA 4.10.15 Hello everyone, Good evening/afternoon/morning. I am trying to "reuse" the TDB database to my portal, where I want to store basically 3 information: IP address , Name, TimeStamp - where IP would be the KEY and "NAME,TIMESTAMP" would be the VALUE. I am using the tdbtool to insert/store data successfully (like the example below)

Let's keep this on the samba list and not an interactive between you and me...Also, I prefer bottom posting so my reply will be at the bottom.

Hi, I'm part of an organization managing Windows clients with a couple of GNU/Linux servers. We're having some trouble configuring our Samba 3 Debian Linux server. It's just a domain member with authentification done with a Windows AD Domain Controller, it's supposed to be our new print server. The printers have already been set up for lprng. Whenever trying to add a driver to

Is it normal that the gencache.tdb should grow and grow “forever” and fill up with “RA/<hex>” posts? I’ve been investigating why our Samba 4.7.3 servers (happened with older version 4 servers too) would use such insane amounts of memory on our FreeBSD 11.1 servers (we see smbd processes using hundreds of megabytes of RAM and up to 5GB virtual memory). Anyway, one part that seems to use

Hello all, I am trying to get to the bottom of a printing issue with samba-3.0.25b-2.fc7 and cups-1.2.11-2.fc7. I wasn't sure whether to start here or the CUPS list. When left running for an hour or two, the CUPS process will often be left using nearly 100% CPU. At this point, printing and add printer wizard operations from Windows clients over Samba are unreliable. Dialog boxes pertaining
