Dear Samba! I use a perl script to move print jobs around for users, and there is a custom printer interface to pick up the jobs. Windows clients print to the samba printer, which basically moves the job to another share to be picked up by the print server client, depending on the users \\Machine Name. A sample from the conf file:
[tcacol-prn] comment = Printer for Colour at Talss CA path = /var/spool/samba public = yes writable = no printable = yes create mode = 0700 print command = /usr/bin/perl /home/lxp/bin/lxp.pl "%m" "% s" /home/lxp/spool/tcacol-spool/ 2>> /home/lxp/logs/lxpprt.log Everything works perfectly - however, as users migrated from W98 to W2k & winXP the Print Jobnames that they've been using have been turning into something similar to "smbprn.003702.d4aZ5g" I don't understand why - however if you print to a windows printer queue - the name of the document turns up perfectly.
