Hi Obaid,
Here it is:
on the "XP print server":
Create a printer with the Generic / text only driver
Share it with the share name: test
On a another XP workstation:
Open the XP server (ie. \\1.2.3.4 in explorer)
Double click on the printer to get it installed.
When doing this the driver is copied from the print server into the
client (XP server case).
With S3 it starts to diverge after the client requested the level 101 on
getprinterdriver (and when it got the answer back from the server).
That's this precise point where I want the explaination of what is
missing in s3 answer to trigger the driver download (like it's the case
when XP is acting like a print server).

Hi Matthieu:
Sorry for not being very clear. I already have your traces. What I want is the
steps to reproduce this trace, meaning what program you ran on client and
server to cause this message exchange. I am looking for step by step
instructions so that I can reproduce this.

Hi Mathew:
Please provide the detailed steps to get the capture
http://www.matws.net/mat/misc/xpserver_genericprinter.
It's a simple tcpdump capture just download it. I made a link with the .cap at
the end so maybe it's easier like this on Windows:
http://www.matws.net/mat/misc/xpserver_genericprinter.cap
http://www.matws.net/mat/misc/s3server_genericprinter.cap
Please include the OS information with service packs applied as well.
Os: Windows XP Pro SP2 for the XP workstations, Samba 3.5 git tree

Subject: Spoolss questions
Hello Dochelp Team,
I've got a few questions regarding the MS-RPRN documentation, here they are:
1) Page 372 it is stated that :
"FeatureOptionPairs (variable): Must be a concatenation of an even number of
zero-terminated ASCII strings, terminated by an additional zero character. Each pair of
two consecutive strings specifies a print schema feature and the currently selected
option."
Which options should be included in this field ?
What is the signification of the options, for instance the dump of the Generic
/ Text only driver give the following array:
options: ARRAY(10)
[0] : 'InputBin'
[1] : 'Option1'
[2] : 'RESDLL'
[3] : 'UniresDLL'
[4] : 'Resolution'
[5] : 'Option1'
[6] : 'PaperSize'
[7] : 'LETTER'
[8] : 'Orientation'
[9] : 'PORTRAIT'
For PaperSize and Orientation it's quite obvious but for InputBin
RESDLL or Resolution it's already not
2) I have the impression that the definition of the JTEXP structure defined
page 372 is not complete.
Because here is a dump of the whole extra data field:

As the feature options pair is a null terminated array of null terminated
string it seems to me that the end of the array is at 2cF and it leaves 28
bytes not used.
Am I wrong ?
3) Page 372 it is stated that:
"dwOptions: The value of this field must be the number of entries in the
aOptions array that are initialized.
aOptions: This field is an array that is 512 bytes in length and contains user
interface selections.
Unused fields should be initialized to zero. The meaning of the entries differs
for each supported printer model. Upon receipt, the checksum of this array is
computed and compared to dwChecksum32. The array is used only if the checksums
match.
"
A ndrdump of this part gives:
usedoptions : 0x00000005 (5)
options: ARRAY(128)
options : 0x00000002 (2)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
options : 0x00000000 (0)
where usedoptions is dwOptions and options is aOptions.
The questions are: what is the meaning of an initialized entry in the aOptions
array, because according to the dump we should have 5 initialized entries and
we have only 1 with a non null value, and what is the signification of the
value of the entry, is there a special meaning for each entry (ie. entry #1 is
for the paper size, entry #2 is for the duplex capability) Also which checksum
function is used how to compute it ? on which data ?
4) About level 101 of getprinterdriver We have currently a problem
when replying correctly to level 101 request in getprinterdriver as
the client is not downloading the drivers from the server, I made a
test with a windows XP acting as a print server and in this case the
client (also XP) is downloading the driver (see capture
http://www.matws.net/mat/misc/xpserver_genericprinter) after the
getprinterdriver response.
In capture http://www.matws.net/mat/misc/s3server_genericprinter we can see
that around packet 619, instead of requesting the drivers from the server (as
it was the case for xp) the client is requesting forms.
Do you have an explanation for this ? what is needed as an answer from the
server to trigger the driver download ?
Regards.
Matthieu.
