spoolname smbprn.XXXXXX.aaaaaa

2002-11-28 Thread Schmieg Friedemann
Hello There,

since a samba update from 2.0.5. to 2.2.5 (AIX)  we have new spooling names
like smbprn.XX.aa instead of the previous NT file name. We are
printing in a shell for creating pdf - files and after that we are searching
for the master document in our PDM system to check in the pdf as a scondary
file format. But of course with the new spool file name we lost all
information about the file and can't identify it any more in the database.

Is there a way to get the old filename back? We kept the smb.conf unchanged.


Regards, F. Schmieg

The NT filename is still being stored in the printing tdb, but
isn't exposed to the filesystem I'm afraid. You'd need to hack
the printing/printing.c source to do this, sorry.
