Howdy all,
I'm setting up a print server machine to serve hosts in an Active Directory domain. Debian GNU/Linux ("sarge", current testing branch), Samba 3.0.0beta2-1.
Success so far:
- All steps in the current DIAGNOSIS document <http://au1.samba.org/samba/devel/docs/html/diagnosis.html>
- Sharing printer drivers from the [print$] share (yay!)
- Connecting to the Samba server from a Win2000 host
- Connecting to individual printer shares from a Win2000 host
What exactly do you mean by "Connectiong to individual printer share", but failure "printing anything"??
Failure: - Printing anything to said printer shares.
The Win2000 client, when attempting to print a test page to the printer, immediately responds with "Access denied" and an offer to lead me through the printer troubleshooting help.
Have you increased "debuglevel" to 3 or 5 and watched out for the exact messages *Samba* is logging around that "Access denied" event? You may find it usefull to also set "debug timestamp = no" for easier readability of log.smbd....
Selected portions of 'testparm -vs':
And what's the output of a simple 'testparm'?

Have you really CUPS as your Unix print subsystem? In this case there should be an additional setting of
printing = cups
in your smb.conf..... But your "selected portions of 'testparm -vs'" doesn't show up *any* setting for the printing. (So samba might be defaulting to "bsd"....)

These commands will not be used if you have both, "printing = cups" and "printcap = cups"....

The frustrating part is that this was working briefly a week ago, but is not currently and I can't determine why. This is small comfort of course; but it does show that it's at least possible to get this working :-)
So *what* did you change during that time, to the best of your memory? Settings, updates, hardware, clients, ....?
Cheers, Kurt
