Let me see what I can see from the wife's Windows computer When trying to add a printer on my wife's Windows XP machine I am asked for a user name and password to connect to this computer. I supply the username and password but am unable to connect to the printer. Is samba finally running? You have to set up the exported folders, printers, authorized users, etc. again. Purging the samba packages removed all your configuration files, but since we could not isolate the cause of your problem we did not have much choice. See Greg's recent mail for tips about samba administration. I now have samba set up to share the printer with the Windows machines on my network, which is all I need. Thanks very much for your help Florian. Thanks also to Greg. I think you can now also restore the rest of your system (your libc6 version was OK, by the way.) I would do it like this: 1) Comment out all unofficial repositories (including debian-multimedia) in your /etc/apt/sources.list. 2) Run aptitude update and then aptitude search '~i!~Odebian' to get a list of all unofficial/obsolete packages. Save this list of packages. Verify that nothing important is on the list and run aptitude remove '~i!~Odebian' (Ask here if you are unsure about what is important.) I have done the above search and saved the list to a file. I do not think there is anything important that could not be re-installed on the list, but I would appreciate it if you would let me know if you agree.

Yes, I'm reasonably sure the upgrade is complete. I did use the
procedure
in the release notes as closely as I could - it did involve several
itinerations of upgrade and dist-upgrade until aptitude indicated
there is
nothing to upgrade. The kernel was upgraded last.

The status of kernel, udev and hotplug seems to be OK.
As far as CUPS is concerned: I am surprised that the cupsys package
has been removed instead of upgraded to version 1.2.7-4. What is the
output of
apt-cache policy cupsys
cupsys:

Candidate: 1.2.7-4
Version table:
*** 1.2.7-4 0
500 http://ftp.debian.org stable/main Packages

After seeing this I did an aptitude install cupsys and went to
http://localhost:631 and congigured my printer. I can now print from
this machine! Thank you very much!
I do not immediately see anything wrong with your samba-related
packages. You could try to restart it and hope for a more illuminating
error message:
/etc/init.d/samba restart
All this did was send another message from root about the Samba panic
action script. Just to be sure, I re-booted the computer and got the
same message from root again. So samba is still not working.

[...] At this point I do not know if the underlying problem is in cups or samba or something else. Any pointers or suggestions will be greatfully received. Just to get this out of the way first: Are you sure that your upgrade is complete? Did you use the procedure outlined in the release notes? -- Regards,| http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | Yes, I'm reasonably sure the upgrade is complete. I did use the procedure in the release notes as closely as I could - it did involve several itinerations of upgrade and dist-upgrade until aptitude indicated there is nothing to upgrade. The kernel was upgraded last. Bill
cups and samba stop working after upgrade to etch
After upgrading my sarge box to etch, I cannot print and samba no longer works. When I re-boot I get the following message from root: The Samba 'panic action' script, /usr/share/samba/panic-action, was called for PID 2540 (/usr/sbin/smbd). This means there was a problem with the program, such as a segfault. Below is a backtrace for this process generated with gdb, which shows the state of the program at the time the error occurred. The Samba log files may contain additional information about the problem. If the problem persists, you are encouraged to first install the samba-dbg package, which contains the debugging symbols for the Samba binaries. Then submit the provided information as a bug report to Debian. For information about the procedure for submitting bug reports, please see http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting or the reportbug(1) manual page.
