We just put in a new Solaris 9 server running Samba 3.0.11 to replace a Solaris 8 server running Samba 2.0.7.

RE: [Samba] Unable to join samba server to a NT4 style domain
Ash, Can you check the value of the restrictanonymous registry key on your NT4 server - I think if it's set higher than 0 or 1 you'll be prevented from joining the Domain. Set it to 0, let the Samba box join, and set it back to the previous level. You'll find the setting in 3 places with regedit; 2 are editable, and the 3rd is the current setting. Also, I'm using the smbusers file to map *nix-Windows users, because I'm not running winbindd (it's an OpenBSD box). I've got an entry of: root=administrator You might try adding that file/entry to see if it helps. I guess the --long doesn't display anything, or you have to tell it to debug in order for it to work... If you're not using a WINS server, I'd add this to your smb.conf: name resolve order = lmhosts host bcast I'm not sure if your lmhosts entry for the NT4 server is gnsi_server1 or gnsi_server10x20 I think it should be the former.

RE: [Samba] Unable to join samba server to a NT4 style domain
Ash, I'd try adding the next Samba box to the Domain, and use the net rpc oldjoin command first, to see if it works that way. If it does, then you won't have to mess with the restrictanonymous setting at all. I don't think setting it back to the original setting will cause problems, as everything else was working at that setting. I'm also glad that it's a dynamic setting; you don't have to reboot the server every time you change it... Maybe the reason the Samba 2.x server setups worked was that the NT4 default restrictanonymous setting was 0, and about the time 2.2x/3.x was released, NT Admins were made aware of the vulnerability at 0 and were changing it to 1 or 2. Anyway, I'm glad it's up running!

Now, what we have done in terms of setting the registryvalue to 0 is a workaround. Does this have to be done everytime a Samba server joins the domain? I am going to ask my NT admin to change the value back to its original setting. Hope this doesnt cause any problems. Is there a patch for this problem that you are aware of?

RE: [Samba] Unable to join samba server to a NT4 style domain (po st-SOLVED)
Ash, Out of curiosity, what restrictanonymous setting was the NT4 server set to originally, and what was it set to when it allowed the net rpc join command to work? Jim -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
RE: [Samba] Unable to join samba server to a NT4 style domain/Sam ba-Guide feedback
John, The restrictanonymous setting was the primary culprit in Ash's issue. I think he's using basically the same setup as I am; no winbind/LDAP involved. I'm thinking there's some initial handshaking that requires an anonymous connection to PDC, and it's being blocked if the restrictanonymous setting is too high. I sent a note to Ash ( the list) asking for the restrictanonymous settings on his server. They were 2 (no join) and 0 (successful join). His admin has changed it back to 2 now that the Samba server is a member server. The setting is dynamic; no NT4 server reboot is required. Can this be added to Chap 7 as a note for section 7.3.2.3? In the case of using net rpc join -U administrator%xx his result was Unable to find a suitable server which indicate Samba wasn't finding the PDC. In the case of using net rpc join -S NT4SERVER -U administrator net rpc join -S NT4SERVER -U administrator%'' net rpc join -W MYWORKGROUP -U administrator net rpc join -W MYWORKGROUP -U administrator%'' his results were Unable to join domain domain which indicate a connection to the PDC. He had the PDC entry in smb.conf and /etc/lmhosts, so I think the syntax for the example in the Guide should be revised to net join rpc -S PDC -U root%not24get (which are %not24et on pgs 241/242 in the current Guide) to aid in first-try success. Section 7.3.2 might be broken into 2 sections: 7.3.2.1 NT4/Samba Domain with Samba Domain Member Server - Using smbusers Detailing use of the /etc/samba/smbusers file for *nix/Domain users Incorporate the current Item 3 for joining the domain Using net rpc info/net rpc testjoin to validate membership This is for OS that support Samba but don't support Winbind 7.3.2.2 NT4/Samba Domain with Samba Domain Member Server - Using Winbind Containing the current 7.3.2 contents That's all for now...

RE: [Samba] Unable to join samba server to a NT4 style domain
Ash, net help rpc shows the following for the --long option: -l or --longDisplay full information In what I've found from googling and the Samba-Guide (thanks, John!), it looks like net rpc join will create the Domain machine account when you run it; if MYSERVER already exists, you'll be prevented from creating a duplicate entry. Try deleting MYSERVER from the Domain. then run your original command... ./net rpc join -U administrator%'' or ./net rpc join -S NT4SERVER -U administrator%'' and see what happens. If this works, it reinforces this comment from my earlier link: This process joins the server to the domain without having to create the machine trust account on the PDC beforehand. and is a change from Samba 2.x, which required the creation of the machine trust account on the PDC before running smbpasswd -j DOM -r DOMPDC.

I need to be able to log or audit the network access of our network users. This information needs to be used in conjuction with a time and attendance punch clock. I have seen much discussion of using preexec and postexec for obtaining a network access log. However, my testing has shown this as unreliable. It seems Windows logs in and logs out at (nearly) random and the collected information seems useless as I haven't discovered a useful way to collect or parse the collected information. I have tested on various shares as well. Are you just looking for logon/logoff times? I think you can put something in the logon/logoff scripts that will do that. Logon tracking: @echo off echo %USERNAME% Logon \\server\hiddenshare\%USERNAME%.log date /t \\server\hiddenshare\%USERNAME%.log time /t \\server\hiddenshare\%USERNAME%.log Logoff tracking: @echo off echo %USERNAME% Logoff \\server\hiddenshare\%USERNAME%.log date /t \\server\hiddenshare\%USERNAME%.log time /t \\server\hiddenshare\%USERNAME%.log I'm not using logoff scripts, but I googled NT +logoff scripts and came up with a bunch of promising links.

RE: [Samba] Windows Backup to samba3 share = problem
George, ntbackup runs under the SYSTEM account if it's running as a scheduled job. You'll have to tweak the rights on the samba share to include the SYSTEM account. You can try creating a user group named system on the Samba box, and add system to the group corresponding to the Samba share and its' *nix permissions. That might allow ntbackup to read/write to the Samba share. Has anyone already set this up using SYSTEM? Would they post the procedure for George the rest of us? Another note: when you set up ntbackup for jobs that run on a schedule, use the UNC path to the share, NOT a mapped drive. If the user logs off, all drive mappings are disconnected. UNC paths will still be usable, if the rights are in place. Jim -Original Message- From: George H.

Mike, Try adding these lines to your smb.conf: Map To Guest = Bad User guest account = nobody and guest ok = Yes to the [filestore] section. It appears you want to have everyone given access to the share, but the permissions don't match that. e.g. none of your Win2k users are mapped to either User, Group, or Others.

RE: [Samba] Why does a W2K (pro) client do more than it is asked to do?
Lynn, Since I don't see Encrypt Passwords = No in your smb.conf, I'm pretty sure that you're using encrypted passwords. Run testparm, and look for the Encrypt Passwords = entry, just to be sure. Having the users mapped in the smbusers will take care of the prompt. If you want to map drives using a different user name, this might make it easier. If mary is logged in, but wants to map a drive as lynn, as long as smbusers has entries for both mary lynn, it should work. W9x PCs will do that, I think, if you include /user with the net use command. You can try adding the users to the smbusers file, without creating an AIX account for them. The see if they can access the share without being prompted for the password. If that works, see if they can map a drive using a different user name.

I put in a switch a while back , and have a Lexmark Optra printer with a NIC capable\ of 10/100. The LAN cabling is shielded CAT3. The Optra would negotiate to 100Mbps with the switch, but printing took forever. I locked the NIC at 10Mbps, and normal printing resumed immediately. Sounds a little like your problem.

In your logon.bat put these lines (change SERVER to your server name): - if exist %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.old del %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.old ren %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts hosts.old copy \\SERVER\NETLOGON\hosts %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc if exist %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts.old del %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts.old ren %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts lmhosts.old copy \\SERVER\NETLOGON\lmhosts %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc nbtstat -R - Then at the PCs, run the logon.bat, using the server's IP address: Start, Run, \\SERVERIP\NETLOGON\logon.bat, Ok See if you can see the server in the Network Neighborhood. When you have to make changes to the hosts/lmhosts, the changes are loaded during the users logins. The nbtstat -R purges reloads the remote cache name table. 2. Use WINS WINS Support = yes If the Samba server will provide it. WINS server = 192.168.1.xxx to point to the WINS server on your network. 3. Be sure the server/PCs are in the same Workgroup/Domain. 4. Rem out the hosts allow to see if that's a cause. If not, add it back in. Don't forget to restart the daemons after steps 2 4.

Paul, If you were using a Samba version prior to 2.2.7 (I think), then you need to put the following in your [Global] section: disable spoolss = yes and add the following to the [Printers] section and/or each printer entry: use client driver = yes This will support the printers as previously set up, and give you some time to investigate the new features.

Originally I was running the current 2.2.x, and figured trying to diagnose the problem would provide an impetus for trying 3.0, which I have from beta3 through RC1.

Be aware of one oddity, on our w2k clients with the Novell Netware client installed, if the user is logged in the local workstation account as administrator and the Novell account as his regular account, print jobs will show up with the name as Remote Download Document instead of the real document name. If you create a local workstation account that matches the Novell user account and have the user use that instead, then the print jobs will display the correct document name. All of my users are admin's on their PCs, and log onto the PC with their Domain user account. They also display Remote Downlevel Document instead of the file name. No Novell client installed. No local accounts. I haven't done any further testing of this, we don't have a Windows domain and I haven't tried removing the Novell client and printing so I don't know if it Microsoft or Novell bug. -- Like the dinosaur, Windows on the desktop is destined to become extinct...

RE: [Samba] Win2K sp4 can't print
You can blame SP4 if you want too; I won't mind. Weren't those PCs printing ok prior to the upgrade to SP4? Honestly, I've only had one of about 1/2 dozen PCs that I've put SP4 on show any oddities aftewards. And the one PC was flaky prior to the SP install. The SP4 folks here that are using Solidworks 2003 have noticed their systems are much more stable, and what used to be BSODs are now CTDs (Crash To Desktops) instead. Solidworks crashing now only kills itself, instead of the whole system...

RE: [Samba] Printer Rights Fail
The samba docs/folks can tell you more about what spoolss does... Disabling it reverts samba's printing to the LanMan Server-mode printing. That requires the driver being installed on each PC (use client driver=yes). The XP systems may have to have the printer reinstalled using the Add Printer Wizard, and browse to the samba server to select the printer. Then use the XP driver or have Disk method to install the driver. As for the other (non-functioning) printer on the XP systems, you might try adding a local port, type Standard TCP/IP Port, and point it at the lpr port on your samba server. For my Lanier 2138, [EMAIL PROTECTED], the settings are: Port Name: 2138 Printer Name or IP Address: samba1 Protocol: LPR LPR Byte Counting Enabled = checked SNMP Status Enabled = unchecked Two bonuses from using the LPR port instead of samba: 1. I get the actual job name, not smbprn.xx.xx 2. The Lanier Job History reflects the correct info as well. Otherwise it displays smbprn.xx.xx or Remote Downlevel Document as the file name, depending on how you tweak the print command = entry in smb.conf. I've sent several msgs to this list about how can I fix this... Samba's using the spool dir file name as the job name, not the PC-provided filename. That's why it's smbprn.xx.xx, and samba provides this to LPR/LPRng as the Job Name (%J). If you print directly to LPR/LPRng, the correct file name is displayed as the Job name.

RE: [Samba] Problem installing a particular printer WinXP/Samba2.2.7a
Has the driver for this printer been installed on the samba server? If it has, it may have to be reinstalled. If the 4550 can't be installed on the server, you can create a printer share for [picasso] and use: use client driver = yes path = /var/spool/public create mode = 0700 printable = yes public = yes browseable = yes Then the Win2k/XP clients will install the driver locally, instead of using the driver from the server. I'd remove all instances of the driver on your systems (and the server) prior to changing the setting. I've had problems removing them afterwards. A thought: writeable=yes is for file shares, and not needed for print shares, AFAIK. In fact, having writeable=yes in one of my printer shares would cause lpd to open multiple conn's to that printer waiting for status. Once enough conn's opened up, lpd stopped working for all printers...deleting the writeable=yes entry fixed that feature. I don't think it's causing your problem, but it's something to watch out for. Don't forget to run testparm after the mods/restart, to see if there's anything else amiss.

Any of these produce the same result; user=machine name (as it should) Document Name=smbprn.yada.yada Normal Print Command: /usr/local/bin/lpr -U%m -P%p -r %s /usr/local/bin/lpr -U%m -J%J -P%p -r %s From scripted section Print Command: /usr/local/bin/lpr -P%p -J$a -U%m %s;\ /usr/local/bin/lpr -P%p -JTest by Jim -U%m %s;\ /usr/local/bin/lpr -P%p -J$a -U%m %s;\ /usr/local/bin/lpr -P%p -J%J -U%m %s;\ /usr/local/bin/lpr -P%p -J%J -U%m %s;\ But according to /tmp/junkJ, $a is the windows file name, not the spool file name. So does the control file in the spool directory. If I send a file to the Lanier from the command line, the file name is always listed as the Document Name. e.g. /usr/local/bin/lpr -P2138 -Jlmhosts /etc/samba/lmhosts /usr/local/bin/lpr -P2138 -Jlmhosts /etc/samba/lmhosts /usr/local/bin/lpr -P2138 -JThis is lmhosts /etc/samba/lmhosts lpq shows the file name as either lmhosts or This is lmhosts, but the Lanier shows it as /etc/samba/lmhosts Maybe I'm off the mark here...and the Lanier is the bozo. I don't think so yet, because it's only displaying what the samba server/LPRng are passing on to it. Or is it? How does it get the smbprn.yada.yada as the filename? LPRng is sending the right info, as far as lpq shows; but it isn't sending the right info to the Lanier, as far as the Doc Name of smbprn.yada.yada shows. What part Samba is playing, I'm not sure yet. It all seems to be working as it should, but I'm not satisfied. Jim -- To unsubscribe
[Samba] How do I get the @#$$% job name to show instead of smbprn.yada.ya da?
I'm tinkering with this mod to my smb.conf, and can't get the actual filename to be displayed in the printed job history. It's adapted from one Joel put out on the list last year. My impression is that it works for everyone in the world but me All that ever shows up is smbprn.yada.yada... in the printer's history of printed jobs. print command = echo %J %p %s/tmp/junkJ;\ a=`echo '%J' | sed s/^.*- //` ;\ echo This is truncated $a /tmp/junkJ;\ /usr/local/bin/lpr -P%p -J$a -U%m %s;\ rm %s Looking in /tmp/junkJ, the $a is the filename, as it's supposed to be. I'm running OpenBSD 3.2, LPRng 3.8.19. Clients are all Win2k/SP2. The printer(s) are a mix of HP4s, and a new Lanier 2138 (Ricoh 3800c in sheeps clothing). I think something isn't being parsed/passed correctly between Samba and LPRng. Using the standard LPRng Print Command produces the same results (lpr -P%p -r %s), so it almost seems as though the -J%J job info parameter is being ignored (when I add it to the Print Command) Any help would be appreciated.

Are you using the Windows native drivers? If so, update them to more current drivers from HP. I'm using either NT/Win2k v4.3.2.38 or Win2k/XP v02.12.02 of the PCL 5E drivers. The MS-Supplied HP LJ4 drivers (and Lexmark Optra S and more...) have a host of problems. Including missing characters, graphics, etc. 2. Run testparm on your Samba box to see/fix problems in your setup. Directory rights on the lprng or samba spool dirs may cause the Access Denied errors. Look at the LPRng How-To for the correct syntax for the smb.conf entries. Run checkpc -V -f to see/fix problems in the lprng setup. 3. If you're using the print$ share to distribute your drivers, adding guest ok=yes may clear up the Access Denied errors. Be sure that you have guest account and Map to Guest configured in smb.conf.

Jim -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 7:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Samba] Problems with CUPS and a networked epson printer I have an Epson Stylus Color 880, connected to our network via an external ethernet pr intserver. I used to run lprng on the samba server (which is a domain controller), and the Windows clients had one minor problem accessing this printer via Samba (2.2.3a, then): Every time a client wanted to print, the Epson status monitor on the client would complain about communication problems with the printer. However, when one just acknowledged this message, the printer printed. Now I switched to CUPS (and Sa mba 2.2.4), because I think this method is far more advanced, and it is more convenient for inexperienced users that have to manage jobs and printers. All is well with the networked laser printers, however, this one inkjet printer fails to print at all. Printing from the server or a linux client running its own CUPS is fine. When I try to print from any windows client, the status monitor comes up and obviously waits long for something until it finally times out and says: | Communication Error: | | Check all connection s and make sure all devices are on... In the logfile for the respective client, the following messages appear: [2002/06/14 16:02:41, 2] lib/access.c:check_access(329) Allowed connection from (141.89.201.37) [2002/06/14 16:12:20, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_job_submit(655) Unable to print file to eps880 - client-error-document-format-not-supported [2002/06/14 16:12:45, 2] smbd/server.c:exit_server(461) Closing connections [2002/06/14 16:14:40, 2] lib/acces s.c :check_access(329) Allowed connection from (141.89.201.37) This is debug level 2, on level 3 it's much more verbose - I think I shouldn't send all this stuff to a whole mailing list, and I don't see what's the relevant part of it.

RE: RE: [Samba] printer drivers
I think I've lost the big picture...time to step back and look at what you're trying (and unable) to do. 1. Is \\server\Printer being added to the clients as a Network or Local Printer? 2. If Network, are you trying to install the printer drivers from the server? 3. Are you a member of the Linux admins group? 4. Did you delete the default printer apps on the Linux box, and create symlinks to the cups equivalents? (e.g. lpr, lprm, lpd, lpq) (This has bitten me on OpenBSD upgrades; the upgrade overwrites the symlinks with executables, and I have to go back and redo the LPRng symlinks) 5. Re-read the doc's and HOW-TOs for printing setup-a lot has changed in 2.2.x...maybe something will pop up that you missed. 6. If you're not interested in the spoolss support, or it gives you more pain than pleasure (my case!!!) use disable spoolss=yes and use printer driver=no in smb.conf's [Global], remove all connections to \\server\Printer in your workstations' Printers and the Registry. Then re-install \\server\Printer as a Network Printer, and the Port it attaches to should show up listed in the Properties as a LAN Manager Printer Port. This is the pre-spoolss type of printer connection, and I think the easier to set up/manage. 7. Linux prints via cups, and you can see the share- you're almost there... Good luck!

It seems this is used to reply back to the client with printing info. This is the printer change notification back channel. However, in our environment, such connections typically fail, as we disable the Server service on NT/W2K clients as much as possible. In those cases, printing still works fine, so I'm starting to wonder if these back connections are absolutely needed. They are especially annoying when the back connection is made to a firewalled client; it slows down response of the print server enormously (the server waits until the back connection times out). So, I was thinking; is there an smb.conf option (or could it be implemented) to disable these back connections? What would the impact be if I modified the src_spoolss_replyopenprinter() routine to always return false? Would that break anything? Better to just comment out the SPOOLSS_RFFPCN and SPOOLSS_RFNPCN server functions. However, certain changes will not be reflected on the client such as josb listings, etc btwthis is MS's model. You'll have the same problem with a Win2k print server.

Rename the [printers] section to [Printer], and delete the other [Printer] entry. Modify it to read: [Printer] comment = HP720C path = /var/spool/samba guest ok = Yes printable = Yes print command = lpr-cups -P %p -o raw %s -r # using client side printer drivers. lpq command = lpstat -o %p lprm command = cancel %p-%j browseable = No What I think is happening is that you can see the Printer share, but samba and cups aren't talking correctly. Samba spools the job, and sends it to cups. Each print process must be working in order for the job to be processed. Look at your printcap entry for the printer, and make sure it matches what you have in the smb.conf [Printer] and [Global] sections. You may consider creating the printcap entry as hp720 or something similar; chances are you're going to end up servicing more than one printer via your server. Create /var/spool/samba/hp720 and make the [Printer] section [HP720C]. Modify the path=/var/spool/samba/hp720 as well. As you add more printers, you'll be able to give them names that match their model. Printer, Printer2, etc. will add confusion instead of clarity... If the HP720C driver won't work, try the HP550C driver. It's what I have to use for our networked OfficeJet 570, and HP mentions it as a solution for other networked DeskJets.

I search the list archives, but I didn't find anything s imilar. So here goes. Symptoms: - Win98 client can access fileshares OK. The printers show up OK as well in network neighbourhood. - On Linux, printing (lprng) works OK. - In win98, e.g. dir \\server\someprinter *always* queues a job on the linux side. Just as expected. - When adding the printer on win98, the Add Printer wizard warns that the printer is currently offline (its online, spooling and printing is enabled on the linux side!?) N ow for the really weird bit: When I add the printer as the *native* model (it's an Epson Stylus color 600), then printing a test page works (even though it won't let me untick the Use Printer Offline...) But I need to make windows believe that i have a postscript printer (works better with Quark that way). So I added the (same) printer, but this time with the Digital turbo printerserver 20/net; (magicfilter on the Linux side will take care of the postscript-epson co nversion). But printing through this printer does *not* work; it just queues up on the windows side !?

Samba printing from both Win9x and WinY2k worked flawlessly under 2.2.1a, for a long time. 3. Printing does work, but only for awhile. And ONLY WinY2k clients are effected, Win9x clients continue to print just fine I did miss the important facts :-( Do you have disable spoolss=no in smb.conf? If so, try =yes That is particular to Win2k; Win9x clients aren't affected. Is it happening on all of your Win2k clients? Who, if anyone, is set up as admin users= or printer admin=? If I'm set up as an admin user in smb.conf, with disable spoolss=no, I get the access denied msg when I try to get the printer's properties; don't know how print jobs went...never got that far. What port does Win2k say the printer is attached to? If it started out on a 2.2.1a box, it may say LanMan Printer Port. If you removed it and re-installed it with 2.2.4 as a network printer and disable spoolss=no, it may say that it's a Local Port. Try setting disable spoolss=yes and see if it'll let you reconnect it to the LanMan Printer Port. I had to set disable spoolss=yes on my server, because of all the hassles it was causing when the printer was added as a Network Printer...never tried it as a Local Printer with ...=no. 1. Conflicts with members of printer admins and admin users - couldn't view printer properties 2. Printer installed under HKey_Current_User, not HKey_Local_Machine - If I logged into the PC as Administrator and installed the printer, it didn't show up when I logged in under my account 3. Couldn't modify printer settings (memory, device settings, etc.) 4. SIDS displayed under Security tab; not Domain\Domain Users, etc. 5. Could view Properties on samba printer icon under Printers-as long as the printer wasn't installed on my PC and 'admin users= was rem'd out (I'm in the Wheel group) or @wheel and vansickj weren't present. 6. I couldn't install the AdobePS or LexMark drivers onto the samba server; they only install on the local PC. I did manage to install the HP drivers onto the samba server; even with disable spoolss=yes the drivers install onto the Win2k PCs just fine from the server now- a good thing...the only good thing, out of a lot of manhours :-( 6. Many other oddities which I can't specifially recall right now... but will torment me at night for some time to come, I'm sure! How it behaves with disable spoolss=no and the printer added to my system as a Local Printer, I'll never know. I've put off too many other jobs while fighting with samba for the last several weeks.

RE: [Samba] WinY2k Access Denied on Printing
Adam, Just one more thing, and I'll go away, I promise! ;-) If you set disable spoolss=no, then install all of the printer drivers you can, and set disable spoolss=yes, you should be able to install the printers as Network Printers, (not Local, as I mentioned in the last post) connected to the LanMan Printer Port (as in 2.2.1a), but pull the drivers off of the samba server, from [print$]. It works like that for me; but with =yes, the Printers icon doesn't appear. If I double-click on the samba shared printer icon, I can view the properties. I can list myself or wheel in the admin users, printer admins, and write list now, without any access Denied issues So what? Enable spoolss support when you want to install printer drivers on the server, then disable it. Save you from going back to 2.2.1a, maybe.

RE: RE: [Samba] Win2k Printing Problems
Justin, You do want to use the samba box to manage your printers; otherwise all of your PCs are going to be fighting over the printers... that gets real ugly real fast! I don't think you should need to add the printer as a Local Printer, and edit the registry. There may be a better way... set disable spoolss=no in smb.conf; add yourself to printer admins and write list; create the printer share directory and smb.conf entry. Then install whatever drivers you can: extract the current HP drivers to an accessible directory, and have a Win2k directory with SP2 streamlined into it (http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/docs/SPDeploy.doc Page 33). for installing the legacy printer drivers. (e.g. DJ550C for OfficeJet 570's, etc)... Then set disable spoolss=yes, and restart samba. Install your printers as Network Printers and check their Port assignment to see if they're connected to the samba box via a Lan Manager Printer Port. This is the way Samba used to do it, prior to incorporating the spoolss code. Let us know how it goes, Jim p.s. I'd shorten your printer names... The lpd printer name and the Samba share name don't have to match; I'd try using shorter names for lpd, like ithpiii. Try typing lpq -PHPIII_IT_CUBE -l a few times, and I think you'll agree...

I know using smbclient or smbtar can backup data on PCs to samba server, but it is written in tar files.I wonder whether this method can handle a large folder, say, in 10GB size. Also, using smbclient with mget and recurse on, one can copy folders from PC to samba server. But in doing so, it is in interactive mode and keeps asking yes/no to continue. Is there a way to get rid of these prompts? Thanks, Tian. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Ever since this was done, none of our Samba hosts are browsable via Network Neighborhood. While they are still availible via Start - Run - \\servername, it's an annoying inconvenience. Stats: * PDC and BDC are NT domain controllers * Samba hosts are running several versions of Samba, from the later 2.0.* releases, through 2.2.1 and 2.2.3 * Samba hosts include Linux, IRIX, HP-UX, and Solaris To me, this points at a WINS problem, but deleting the machine account from the domain and adding a new one does no good. Unfortunately, since WINS is such a black art (at least to me), the NT admins can't figure out where the problem lies, either.

[Samba] Win2k Printer Installation Woes Continue....
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! Sorry, I'm a bit slap-happy...been fighting Win2k/APW problems ever since I upgraded to 2.2.3a. Still having problems 2.2.4-pre and now 2.2.4. I have a workaround, sort of...set disable spoolss=no, install drivers for the HP printers; then set disable spoolss=yes. Add use client driver=no on each of the HP printer entries. Add use client driver=yes for the non-HP printers. I have 3 non-HP, and they either use the Lexmark or AdobePS install proggies. Can't install the drivers on the Samba box using APW. I've posted a few items recently while working on the problem; APW is only part of the problem. If disable spoolss=no, adding a printer on my Win2k PC results in the following: 1. Adding a printer from the Samba box doesn't result in a System Event 2 (printer added). 2. I can't view the Properties on either the installed printer or the printer icon on the Samba box. 3. Removing the printer from my system allows me to view the Samba's printer Properties. If disable spoolss=no, the following issues arise on the Samba APW printers: 1. Two sets of printers are displayed: one a grey icon, which only has a General tab when opened. Blue Shared Printer icons that appear when the Printers folder is opened. I can view the Properties on the printer, as long as it isn't installed on my system. 2. Security on the APW printer icon displays only Everyone and the SID for my Domain Admin, with an Unknown User indicator icon. Unlike my 2.2.2 server, no attempt seems to be made to resolve the ID of the SID. (My 2.2.2 box first displays the SID, then an hourglass is displayed until the resolved name replaces the SID.) If I add Tucson\Domain Users, the group icon is displayed ok. If I close the Security tab, then open it again, only the SID is displayed. This occurs for every user/group added. If disable spoolss=yes, then I can install the printer, and display Properties on both. The Security tab displays the same info on both system/Samba printer icons: my local Win2k rights to the printer. I think this is as it should be. Why is this happening?

Install cygwin on the server, ssh into the server, and do your net stops/starts that way. http://www.cygwin.com Jim -Original Message- From: Jeff Gustafson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 22, 2002 5:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Samba] Samba and Service Manager Does Samba support starting/stoping services in a remote Windows server? In the archives I did find a thread discussing the reverse of this, but I was hoping that I could do some Windows admin work from Unix command line. ...Jeff -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
RE: [Samba] W2k protection fault w/HP drivers and Samba 2.2
I'd look on the HP Support site for note on using this printer on a network-you might have to use something like the DJ550C driver, since it isn't connected to a Windows PC's LPT. Jim -Original Message- From: Mark Kunzmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, April 21, 2002 4:28 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Samba] W2k protection fault w/HP drivers and Samba 2.2 Hi, I'm having a major problem getting my HP DeskJet 840C to work correctly with Samba (2.2.1a-4 - RedHat 7.2) and Windows 2000 Professional. Whenever I try to view the properties for the printer the Windows 2000 box throws Function address 0x6062c92f caused a protection fault (exception code 0x005). Some or all property page(s) may not be displayed. I don't get this error when I hook up the printer directly to the W2k box and install the exact same driver. I have set up a [print$] for Samba as explained in the documentation and indeed the driver up/download functionality seems to be working perfectly. The rest of my Samba file shares are also performing great. I have seen a couple of other people run into this in the archives but can't find anyone who's posted a solution. This has been keeping me busy for days now - ANY pointers on this problem would be very much appreciated indeed!!
