[Samba] Re: XP bug -- client spooler loop (MS KB 329234)

2004-11-30 Thread Rohan Gilchrist
I think it is more of a windoze bug than a samba one.
For what it's worth, I fixed it but changing my print setup on my xp clients
to print via standard tcp/ip port. This immediately fixed my problem.
Cheers,
Rohan

is an old XP bug.
Here's the link:

Unless someone can provide more information to show that
this is not the bug you are seeing with slow printing from
xp sp2 clients, I'm marking this one off my list.
Some old bugs never die I guess.

Hi everyone,
I had this problem, too. I solved it by creating a local port in the
printers folder on xp sp2 client (don't browse thru Network!),
attaching this port to the UNC-Path on my Samba 3.07 Server, e.g.
\\linuxsrv\hp_laserjet1150. Then install your printer , put it on
file: or
lpt1: during installation. Now point this printer to the local port. From
this moment, it worked flawless.
Please let me know if this works for you (and excuse my grammar...).

Oliver,
Thanks for your recommendation, it fixed my printing problems!

[Samba] upgrading samba

2004-09-19 Thread Rohan Gilchrist
Hello,
I'm looking to upgrade my Samba from 3.0.4 to 3.0.7. Samba is my PDC currently.
Are there any issues that I need to be aware of before I upgrade? Will I need to 
re-join the domain after the upgrade?

Hello,
I have two hard drives on one PC.  One is a Windows XP drive and the other is 
a Linux (redhat 9.0) drive.  I want Linux to recognize and share files on the 
XP drive.  Where is there documentation addressing this situation?  Because 
now I work mostly with my Linux environment, I wanted to access the XP drive 
from Linux.

Bryan,
What is the file system of you XP drive? If it is FAT or FAT32, then this is easy.
#mount -t vfat /dev/hdx /mnt/whatever
Where x is the letter of the drive. If XP is the first drive, then it will most likely
be /dev/hda1, if it's the second drive, then /dev/hdb1, or /dev/sda1 or /dev/sdb1 if 
they're
scsi drives.
If the XP drive has the NTFS file system, then you're going to have more work on 
your hands.
There's a patch that can allow the linux kernel to read NTFS file systems, but I 
haven't used it
in a while and I can't remember where it can be found.
Alternatively, you can recompile your kernel to allow it to read NTFS file systems 
(again something
I haven't done for a while), but from memory, mounting an NTFS file system with 
read/write access is
dangerous (loss of data possible).
Hope this helps.

Try to update to 3.0.6 when you get a chance and see if things change.

Paul,
It's very similar to this bug, however, I don't get a core dump when I try to print.
The print job works, it just takes much, much longer from SP 2 boxes than SP 1 boxes.
I'll look at moving to 3.0.6 though :)

After posting to the group, I figured that the printer name was not correct, and have
subsequently been able to print from Windows. One further problem has arisen though, and 
that is it seems for Windows to take a long time to let me select the printer and then print, 
resulting in the app appearing to not respond. Once the print job is sent, it is printed fine,
but it appears that printing to my users is slow.

Any ideas?

[Samba] Slow Printing from XP clients with SP2?

2004-09-01 Thread Rohan Gilchrist
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
From an XP machine printing to a SAMBA printer, printing is painfully slow.
Selecting the printer, and even sending the job through windows makes the app
appear non-responsive. The print job is completed fine, but just takes a long time
to print.
XP boxes with SP1 print like a dream. I've managed to replicate this on 4 boxes all
with SP2.
I'm running SAMBA 3.0.4.
Cheers,
Rohan
