Adam,
I copied the ntdrivers.tdb file over and it kind of seems to be okay,
but I also seem to have extra leading backslashes. Below is are examples
taken from rpcclient -c "enumdrivers 2". The first is from socrates, the
Samba-2 machine and the second from berkeley, the Samba-3 machine. In
both cases it's the same driver.
Printer Driver Info 2:
Version: [3]
Driver Name: [HP Color LaserJet 3700 PCL 6]
Architecture: [Windows NT x86]
Driver Path: [\\socrates\print$\W32X86\3\UNIDRV.DLL]
Datafile: [\\socrates\print$\W32X86\3\HPC37006.GPD]
Configfile: [\\socrates\print$\W32X86\3\UNIDRVUI.DLL]
Printer Driver Info 2:
Version: [3]
Driver Name: [HP Color LaserJet 3700 PCL 6]
Architecture: [Windows NT x86]
Driver Path: [\\\\BERKELEY\print$\W32X86\3\UNIDRV.DLL]
Datafile: [\\\\BERKELEY\print$\W32X86\3\HPC37006.GPD]
Configfile: [\\\\BERKELEY\print$\W32X86\3\UNIDRVUI.DLL]
The issue of case not withstanding, notice how in the Samba-2 output,
there are only two backslashes before the netbios name and the Samba-3
output has four. Is that normal? Is there something I need to do to fix it?
Thanks,
Rob

I am taking down a printer server running Samba 2.2.7 and replacing
it with a new Samba-3 server running on an entirely different box.
There are 15 different drivers installed on the old server (all added
at various times via a windows client) that I would like to move over
to the new server. I've copied the files over to the new system and
I've looked at the adddriver command with rpcclient. The problem is
that I don't really know very much about PC print drivers and so I
don't really know what to supply in terms of the arguments,
especially the lists of files.
Have you tried simply copying all the files in the print$ share across
to the new print$ share, then copying the .tdb files for each printer
as well? I've got no idea whether it'll work (or even if there
were .tdb files in Samba-2) but that's where I'd start.
Cheers.
Adam.
