Thanks for the suggestion, but the Okidata driver didn't fix it. I did have this working about 6 months ago, but due the linux being on a used hard drive, it failed on me. (no big loss, as I only used that machine as a print server), but I can not seem to get it working again.

Hello
I am trying to set up a share between a Linux Mandrake box and a windows
2000 computer, to allow the Windows user to use the print to pdf
feature in samba.  I have ensured that permissions are set to allow the
windows user access to all the scripts / programs required for  this
procedure, with the output to go into the users /home directory (I have
even tried creating a shared folder, and allowing rwx access for
everyone (ugo).  Below is the error that is in the samba log files after
attempting to print to pdf

I have tried different postscript print drivers on the windows machines
(even different windows machines), but I still get the same error
messages.

Thanks for any assistance

Hey Darcy,


It almost seems like the win2000 is unable to use the right/any postscript driver. I had setup my wifes win98 computer to use the "Okidata OL830 PostScript" driver in windows (after many attempts using others), and it finally saved out under her account (/home/carol) on my spare mdk9.0 box. It was working really good, but I have not checked it out for some time now to see if it still works. I am no expert in this, but I don't remember having to do a lot with permissions settings...I did however go through many postscript drivers before I found one that seemed to do the job.
