In lpd.conf:

# Purpose: force IPADDR of Originating host for host value in control file
#   default force_ipaddr_hostname@ (FLAG off)
force_ipaddr_hostname

And in smb.conf something like:

print command = /usr/local/LPRng/bin/lpr -P%p -CSOURCE=SAMBA,REMOTEIP=%I -r %s

Unfortunately, winPopup is a DOS magnet. I don't think that a firewall can help because winPopup uses the same protocol as file and print sharing so you would be blocking other functions too. But perhaps I'm wrong about this.

There are other messaging services (eg. Jabber). Has anyone used one of them?

i sent this email before but didn't get any answer. if you got time please help me.

using ifhp 3.5.11, hp4100.

the print jobs are sent to the print server from a samba server(AIX 4.3). once there 
is error
(quota etc), i would like to send winPopup message to the user. however the host that 
LPRng got
always is the samba server host name. is there a way that i can pass the real host 
name from samba
server to the print server?


happy holiday!



Qiang.
