2nd attempt: Modify location of printerdriverfiles

2002-11-28 Thread Kätzler, Ralf
Hi!

Maybe this time someone can give me a hint - or is my english that bad - so that 
nobody can catch the point - or my question is posted to the false list?
Please each answer is welcome! Thank you!

Hello, Samba-Team, hello samba-freaks!

My question/problem:
I like to use a samba-server as printer-server for about 500 users with ~ 40 
different printers.
The client OS is NT4 or XP. The problem I encountered is that there are 
printerdrivers out there which use for different models dlls with the same name but 
the dlls are not
compatible - great!! - ! So only the last installed printer works flawless, because 
the dll for the other model is overwritten during driverinstall.
My question: Is there a tool, which allows save tempering with the *.tdb, to change 
the path to the driverfiles or to change the behavior to rpc getdriverinfo?
This way it would be possible to create an own driver-directory-structur and all 
those printerdriver related problems are gone...

Greetings
Ralf

Btw.: Redhat 8.0 and latest Samba.
Calling the printermanufactor is hopeless. The only answer I got is: This must be a 
problem  with your OS... thanks for your help. :(

Greetings
Ralf

I think the workaround will not work. I can´t predict which user on which machine will 
use which printer.
Our users have in most case max. two networkprinters connected - for our luck long 
physikal ways prevent the need to connect to more printers.
We have created a small script which erases all printerrelated registry-entries and 
files on the client.
A user or admin can run this script and the client is clean for a new 
printer-installation. This way we work around the naming-problem on the client. (The 
users *theoretical* know which printers cannot be installed at the same time).
Of course this works not on the printserver :)).

If there is no other solution, we have to fight another skirmish with HP ... maybe 
we can convince them to take more care when naming there files..
... on the other hand maybe someone is happy to implement the needed variables to the 
samba-core?? :)
The moto would be: Power is nothing without control

Simo: Thanks for your answer.

Have a nice day.
Ralf

 That would change nearly nothnig, because the printer drivers will be
 copyed in the same structure on the client and there you will find the
 same naming problem.
 
 It is a known windows problem (just faces some day ago with 
 drivers for
 2 HP laser printers on a windows 98 :-/)
 
 If the Printer Manufacturer tell you so she is both right an wrong.
 
 Right it is an OS problem, A windows OS problem.
 
 Wrong the manufacter must know this issue and try not to make drivers
 with overlapping names.
 
 
 However you may try just a workaround. If any of your clients will use
 only one printer, you may try some symlink + macro expansion tricks to
 use different directories, but it may not work or corrupt badly your
 printer settings and prnting related tdb file, so at your own risk:
 
 - you may use a macro expansion on the print$ share path and 
 then make a
 number of directories that match that macro expansion
 
 eg:
 path = /usr/share/samba/%G/drivers
 
 and have a pool of printers per group or other parameter.
 
 Simo.
