Hmmmm.... Can you print simply by being a client on the Redhat box
itself??? I.e. is all the "plumbing" working?

JE. Hi all,
JE.
JE. I have made all the changes you have each suggested but still to no avail. Even
with with the simplified smb.conf file etc and the added lines for the guest accounts
I still recieve no output. I can however confirm that using Christoph's suggestion I
can print and generate the printfile in my tmp folder and it does contain data.
JE.
JE. I don't know if it is relevant but the box is a Redhat 9.0 box clean install.
JE.
JE. I really do appreciate all of your suggestions on this matter, and any more
pointers would be great.
JE.
JE. Many Thanks

JE. This may seem too obvious, but since I have struggled with this as well,
JE. and it now works fine, I wonder: where in your smb.conf are references to
JE. your guest account? You have 'Guest ok = yes' but that's it.
JE.
JE. FWIW, my own conf files include in the globals section:
JE.
JE. guest account = nobody
JE. security = user
JE. map to guest = Bad User
JE.
JE. I also note that I do NOT have a statement on 'Printing = ...' in the
JE. gloabls section but instead a reference to printcap:
JE.
JE. printcap name = /usr/local/etc/printcap
JE.
JE. ...which is of course the LPRNG printcap. The pointer to 'Printing =
JE. lprng' is in my [printers] section, which also include the various print
JE. commands you have in your globals.
JE.
JE. No doubt I have numerous issues, but it works reliably.
JE.
JE. My other suggestion is to crank the samba log level up (20?), wipe out the
JE. logs, and then do a single test and read them.
JE.
JE. Also be sure you can simply connect to the server.
JE.
JE. Finally: why do you have those SO_ options in the 'socket options'
JE. section?
JE.
JE. Hope this helps,
