Hi team, I use Samba 4.3.12 as a printserver with ~900 printers, and it takes about 20 seconds for rpcclient enumprinters command to finish. However, sometimes it gets stuck and returns WERR_SEM_TIMEOUT for no apparent reason, and this timeout always takes exactly 12 seconds. I was thinking maybe there is a hardcoded timeout somewhere that is shorter than expected 20 sec time for returning my

Hi all, After building Samba 4.1.20 for Ubuntu 14.04 x64 I encountered this issue when using shared printers: every time a client prints or changes printer settings, this message is logged in the log: dcerpc_spoolss_ReplyClosePrinter failed [NT_STATUS_RPC_PROCNUM_OUT_OF_RANGE]. Printers print fine, so it is probably harmless, but I still wonder why this happens. With log level = 3 I get

I have a workgroup server with samba operating well and have configured openvpn on it. That also seems to be working well. I also have other servers at different locations with samba/openvpn working. To access the openvpn server I use Windows and manually map a drive to a drive letter using U: as \\servername\sharename The shares work but I am mapping _through_ the samba server - that is I have

We upgraded from Samba 3.0.24 to 3.0.25a over the weekend and rebooted all of our clients afterwards. Since then, some of our clients are randomly getting the following error: "Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller, either because the machine is unavailable, or access has been denied." Unmapping and mapping the network drive fixes the problem, but one

hi, I'm having trouble printing with smbclient via an embedded USB printserver. This printserver is a nifty little $35 box with an Ethernet jack and a USB jack that provides network access to your USB printer as a Windows share (a poor man's Jetdirect, if you will). I can connect to the printer with smbclient, but when I try to print anything, even a small text file, I always get the

Hi, I'm trying to upload printer drivers to my jessie samba 4.1.17 print server, but I'm getting: "Failed to add driver. Access denied", and I don't understand why. The domain join is OK (verified with net ads testjoin) and on the DC I have given the SePrintOperatorPrivilege to the Domain Admins group, of which I am a member: root at DC2:~# net rpc rights list

Hi! the previous problems were solved (thank you, Rowland!), but few issues remains: I get such msg in log: 0. Is it possible to tell samba to output messages in logs as one line per message (even if it is long one?) 1. 2015/04/12 11:32:39.293583, 3] ../source3/smbd/msdfs.c:971(get_referred_path) get_referred_path: |shareX| in dfs path \FS\shareX is not a dfs root.

Hi. Tonight, I upgraded our Samba print server running Samba 3.0.30 to Samba 3.2.7. This netbios name of this server is 'EUPRYMNA' and the DNS-name 'euprymna.falw.vu.nl'. Since this is a difficult name to remember, we created a DNS-alias 'printserver.falw.vu.nl'. Connecting to printers by calling the server by it's DNS-alias worked in 3.0.30. After the upgrade

Greetings Samba Fans! I'm experiencing a strange problem which started after installation of Service Pack 2 for Windows XP: When a user tries to print there is a long delay (sometimes around 2 minutes) before the printer properties page is opened. This only affects Windows XP with Service Pack 2 installed. I did a 'tcpdump' on the printserver and observed something quite strange:

Running RH6.0 I am able to print just fine from linux, the problem now is getting smb printing working. I am using an Intel Netport Express PRO/100 printserver. Previous to my upgrade from RH5.2 when I had the printer directly connected to the samba server, I was able to print just fine from the windows client machines (not using the raw method) My /etc/printcap is as follows ##PRINTTOOL3##

Hello Rowland, thank you for your swift reply. I made the modifications you suggested, which unfortunately did not better the situation. No change as to the "Creator Owner" rights and the Administrator account still shown as locked. Also, I couldn't spot any suspicious messages in the Samba logfiles besides maybe get_referred_path: |profiles| in dfs path

Hi all, I am running samba 3.0.6. I am having an issue on my print server regarding how the printer ends up registering itself on the Windows clients. We have a machine named "bob", "bob" has an alias both in DNS and in the netbios name in Samba of "printserver", "bob" has an IP address of 192.168.1.1. In a seemingly random fashion sometimes when I add

Hello, currently I am trying to setup a Samba environment (Samba AD DC, Samba Fileserver, Samba Printserver) using Samba version 4.5.8-Debian and CUPS version 2.2.1-8 on Debian 9 "Stretch". I am trying to setup "Point'n'Print" atm. While my Active Directory domain and the fileserver work well with my Windows 7 clients, I am having some issues with the printserver.

Hello I just upgraded our PDC from 3.0.22 to 3.0.23 with all the bells and whistles. I am running OpenLdap as a backend and did what's been written in the Changelog regarding indexing. The new version started up fine and worked all right. Netlogons, shares, printing etc. I could also assign ACLs to my files as before. The PDC also works as a printserver running cups with the drivers

Okay, before anything else, all I'm using samba for is a "Windows looking" frontend to cups. Eg, so the users don't know I'm getting rid of the windows 2003 printserver and replacing it with a pair of linux printservers (Samba/Cups) I'd like to have 2 (or 3) printservers, all the same build of linux (debian), cloned, etc. users will be able to go to \\printserver

Hi everyone, I am using Samba 2.2.3a on a Redhat Linux 7.2 Intel server as a printserver on a W2K PDC network. I have a Xerox 440 printer, an HP 4500 PS and an HP 4550 PS printer using my Samba printserver. I am often receiving the following error message: ERROR: syntaxerror OFFENDING COMMAND: STACK: at which point printing stops and the printers start saying TIMEOUT. Sometimes I can reprint
