[Samba] samba3 and CUPS: lpoptions does not work
Hi, I have set up a CUPS queue in the samba server with specific lpoptions (actually, it's a queue to print 2-up on an HP LaserJet4300 printer. I used lpoptions -d NX2-118 -o number-up=2). Everything works as expected when I print from the Unix side. However, when I print to the corresponding samba queue, the options specified through lpoptions are ignored (i.e. the prints come out as 1-up instead of 2-up). I am using samba-3.0.1-pre1 on a RedHat9 system, with CUPS 1.1.17. Did anyone out there manage to get lpoptions working on a Samba printer queue? Any other suggestion to setup a 2-up printer queue with samba? Thanks a lot in advance!

RE: [Samba] samba3 and CUPS: lpoptions does not work
I'm sorry I forgot to mention that, but I am actually using using cups-samba-1.1.19 as you suggest. The cups-postscript drivers are downloading automatically to the clients. Everything works perfectly, except for the fact that I don't get 2-up printing to work :-( I suspect that when the job comes from the samba side, the options applied to the queue with lpoptions are not actually enforced. The other obvious possibility is that I have not configured the queue properly (what did I do wrong?). Basically, the way I did this is: - Set up a plain CUPS queue and export it to samba with cupsaddsmb (everything works as expected) - Repeat the same steps as above for a second queue, pointing to the same printer. I then ran lpoptions -d NX2-118_2up -o number-up=2 and after that I ran cupsaddsmb. The new que (NX2-118_2up) works alright (i.e. 2-up printing) from Linux, but prints 1-up from samba :-( By the way, is there any way to access CUPS printer instances (e.g. NX2-118/2up) from samba? Any suggestions? Thanks a lot in advance! Gonçal The jobs would need to arrive at the Samba server in postscript, preferably from the 'cups driver'. (CUPS publishes a postscript driver for windows that is designed to work with with a cups print chain).

[Samba] Samba 3.0b3: Cannot add machine to LDAP database
I am unable to add a machine to samba-3.0.beta3 running as a PDC. If I try to add the account manually I get the following errors: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# pdbedit -a -m icfo-pc018 failed to add user dn= uid=icfo-pc018$,ou=Systems,dc=icfo,dc=es with: Object class violation object class 'sambaSamAccount' requires attribute 'sambaSID' failed to modify/add user with uid = icfo-pc018$ (dn = uid=icfo-pc018$,ou=Systems,dc=icfo,dc=es) Unable to add machine!

Unfortunately, I have been reading the HOWTO-collection, the man pages and searching with Google, but I don't know how to proceed from here :-( What am I doing wrong? Can anyone help?
