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

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

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

Hi, We're setting up a PDC, and would like to have a login script to deliver the mapped drives to users in particular groups, and connect to printers. The printer drivers come from the [print$], share. Does anyone have any good resources for this? What's the easiest and simplest thing to get going --vbscript or batch files? Thanks, chris

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 I have had this problem for a while, but waited to post this until I upgraded to see whether the upgrade would fix it. I upgraded samba to the 4.2.X stream from 3.6.X stream, but it happens on both, 3.6.X and 4.2.10. Whenever someone logs out, then in again the profile gets corrupted and a new TEMP profile is created (the dreadful "creating new desktop"). Now I do not know where

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

So I still have no idea what I did but every time I try to launch a program under Wine I get an error like this. I basically uninstalled, and then reinstalled but now the error seems to even spread to winecfg. Do I do yet another reinstall of Ubuntu or is there some fix to this? Code: joe at rbjcorp-02911:~$ winecfg wine: creating configuration directory '/home/joe/.wine'... wine:

Huhu, I installed MS Freelancer via PlayOnLinux, but I have some graphics lags ingame/the game was redicoulus slow, I also wasn't really able to start a new game since the game hang up (kinda. It just didn't wanted to finish loading) One idea of me would be that it still runs in DX mode, how can I change it to OpenGL? On a side note, I have enough ressources to run the game at windows.

Greetings, Wine here is: 1.2 from Ubuntu 10.04 repository. $ wine rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler z:\\tmp\\hello.txt Does nothing. No errors, or output at all. On XP this command runs up notepad with the text file ready for editing. Is this likely to be a bug or have I done something wrong? Thanks, Berni

Hi R People! Has anyone installed the Gnu Scientific Library on a Windows system, please? I'm having a dreadful time with that. Any advance would be much appreciated. Sincerely, Laura Holt mailto: lauraholt_983 at hotmail.com

I'm using a fresh install of Fedora Core 5 with the RPM install of Wine 0.9.12. When I run winecfg, it says "wine: creating configuration directory '/home/vince/.wine'..." as I expect it to. Following that is many lines of "Font metrics" progress with a few "fixme:font" messages. Nothing seems too unusual. But, when it gets to "Font metrics:

Hello, I have the following problem, that all my programs take a really long time before they are finally started (minutes). I don't know what I'v changed in my system configuration to cause this behaviour, it worked fine a few days ago. Can I enable some debug messages to see where wine spends the time?
