[Samba] CreatePrinterIC failure from Windows8 client
Hi, While testing Window8 print functionality I notice that the point and print installation of the SAMBA shared printer fails. The symptom is that the driver files gets copied on to the client but towards the end while finishing the printer addition Windows8 throws an error "Cannot connect to Printer: Operation failed with error 0x06d1". Please note the PnP installation for the same printer works fine from a Windows7 client. The printer server I'm using is Debian etch with SAMBA-3.5.15 installed on it and the client is a Windows8-Pro running on a laptop. I captured the packet trace from which it appears like this is an RPC error from SAMBA side. Below is the snippet of failed communication: SPOOLSS CreatePrinterIC request DCERPCFault: call_id: 19 Fragment: Single ctx_id: 0 status: nca_op_rng_error By looking at the source code (source3/rpc_server/srv_spoolss_nt.c, line #9711 - 9716) it looks like SAMBA does not support this RPC call. WERROR _spoolss_CreatePrinterIC(pipes_struct *p, struct spoolss_CreatePrinterIC *r) { p->rng_fault_state = true; return WERR_NOT_SUPPORTED; } Could anyone let me know if CreatePrinterIC going to be supported in later versions of SAMBA? The SAMBA-3.6.x also doesn't seem to have this call implemented yet. This CreatePrinterIC RPC call looks to be getting called only in case of Windows8 and not in case of Windows7 (and previous versions). If CreatePrinterIC is not supported currently, are there any (client/server side) workaround using which I can get away with this problem?

[Samba] wbinfo -u not showing the users
Hi, One of my customers is trying to get his AD integrated with samba 3.5.8 he is running with an older version of CentOs. His domain consist of 1 PDC, 1 BDC and onother DC that replicates the PDC in a remote location. The join to the domain seem to be successful. When I run the command "net ads testjoin" I get a OK message. I can see the users of the domain, when I run the command "net ads user". However wbinfo -u does not show me the user list. When I run wbinfo --online-status, the domain I have joined to is not shown. Only the BUILTIN and the host name is output. The winbindd logs say that the domain is not known when I run the command wbinfo --domain= -u. How can this happen? How can I get winbindd to recognize the domain?

[Samba] Accessing files via symlink, does client see a difference?
I have an ancient device, several actually, called an Audiotron that I use Samba for to access media files. Now, I realize these are old and finicky devices. For ease of management, I keep my media files separated into 4.5GB directories (easy to burn to DVD) and then I have a script that goes into each of those directories and creates one big directory full of symlinks pointing into each individual directory. I'm sure my configuration is correct (follow symlinks = yes, wide links = yes in my services) as modern programs such as WinAmp and VLC have no problems accessing the directory full of symlinks (about 2500 links). However, the Audiotron has issues. If I try and play a file, sometimes it play, sometimes it won't. If I try and play it again immediately, sometimes it will go, sometimes I'll have to select play several times before it'll play. If I create individual services for each of my media directories and have the Audiotron catalog them individually, they all work fine. So, my question is, does the client see any difference in accessing a file via SAMBA (3.5.6) if it's a symlink vs a real file? I wouldn't think it would be able to, but the Audiotron certainly doesn't like them very well, yet Winamp has no issues. Thanks for any thoughts. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Win7 enum missing in samba 3.5.3
Hello: Reviewing the code in ~include/smb.h file in samba 3.5.3 and the enum for "remote_arch_types", I have some questions: 1. Windows 7 is missing there...is there is specific reason for leaving it out? There are references to win7 elsewhere in the code. 2. My client is Win7 but during Negotiation, it is detected as RA_WIN2K! Is that an issue?

I see the following link that suggests that there was a bug in gcc4.3.3 related to iconv: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/330020 Can someone please confirm if gcc4.3.3 can be used for building samba 3.2.15 (on MIPS CPU)?

[Samba] help changing write_through
Hello Experts: I would like to force my samba server to send WRITE_THROUGH option (inside CREATE_ANDX_RESPONSE) back to the client (even though the client doesn't explicitly requests for it). I tried to follow the path inside open.c but it doesn't seem to be working. Can someone pls help with this?

[Samba] Slow first save operation from WinXP
Hello, The first time I save a file from a winXP client, (from Word or other programs) this takes a long time (12 secs or more). Subsequent saves don't have this problem. If I don't use the share for a longer period, then this stalling happens again. This problem does not happen when I just open a file, or when I use explorer to copy a file to the share. I did a fresh install of Debian Lenny, added Samba through apt, with default configuration for the home shares, and I'm still having the same problem. I could not find anything similar on the Internet. Samba 3.2.5 on Debian Lenny (5.0.4, fully up to date). Clients: WinXP Home and Professional, English, fully updated (May 2010). Has anyone seen something similar, or have any ideas what might be happening?
