Hi all, This is happening on a Samba 3.0.1 PDC-controlled domain, so I'm not sure if the issue is Samba-related. If not, perhaps somebody can point me in the right direction.
One of my users has a printer connected to his Win2k PC (name UPSTAIRS-SMALL). Printing to it from another (WinXP) workstation fails miserably. I tried to go back to first principles and go Start->Run \\upstairs-small to see the shares on the machine. That returns: "an extended error has occurred". Very helpful. Then, in a dos prompt: > C:\Documents and Settings\antgel>net view > Server Name Remark > > -------------------------------------------------------------- > \\DOWNSTAIRS > \\FUJITSU-LAPTOP LAPTOP > \\PULSE-LAPTOP Pulse Solutions laptop > \\RECEPTION > \\SECRETARY > \\SERVER Samba 3.0.1-Debian > \\UPSTAIRS-SMALL > The command completed successfully. > > > C:\Documents and Settings\antgel>net view \\upstairs-small > An internal Windows 2000 error occurred. > > More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2140. > > > C:\Documents and Settings\antgel>net helpmsg 2140 > > An internal Windows 2000 error occurred. > > EXPLANATION > > A software error occurred. > > ACTION > > Contact technical support. > Aside from the hilarity of the above, I need to get this going, and I am technical support, DOH! This happens from more than one workstation. The strange thing is that it does sometimes work (rarely), but appears to be totally random. I'd appreciate a CC as I'm not subscribed.
