Hi, After using the client driver for a long time, I want to give a try to the drivers installed on Samba server. I am using the how-to at http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/classicalprinting.html It goes fine up to "installing drivers into [print$] using APW". I can see a list of drivers files growing into W32X86. But when I try to access the properties of a

Hi, On Samba 3.0.2a on debian stable with a 2.6.5 kernel, each time I use APW to configure my printers, smbd takes more and more memory and the kernel does an Out of Memory (I have 512 Mo RAM). It's Xerox printers. Is the problem known (and corrected in 3.0.3rc1) or is it new ? Thanks for the answer. Cordialy, -- Yohann F.

I'm getting ready to migrate my office of 50+ Windows XP machines to Windows 7, in a mix of 64-bit and 32-bit clients. I've setup a new samba server on a separate domain to prepare and test for this transition. I've gotten everything to work so far except for printing, and I'm at a loss on how to proceed. It appears to me as if adding the printer drivers in the usual way,

I know that I have been posting WAY too frequently, but know one has answered my pleas with anything that helped. No matter how I try to use the RPC calls, whenever I try to add a new printer to a my Samba 2.2.5 server I get an "access denied" error.

Maybe it is how I am doing search I don't know. I had some success using CUPS for Point and Click printing using cupaddsmb command. I could get the print drivers to download on W2K and XP. But, I could not get the the

Thanks Rowland. I've followed the guide on that page, the following page looks good: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configuring_Point%27n%27Print_automatic_printer_driver_deployment However, when I try to add a driver with "Print Management" to the Samba server, I got an access denied error. Here's how I did it. ------------------------ 1. create a user with smbpasswd,

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.

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.

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.
