[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers
Any news on the release of this fix for precise? I'm preparing to set up servers for windows networks, and I need to know what workaround I have to use. 3.6.6 as originally released is not going to go on these servers. I've made Ubuntu my distro of choice, but this was reported almost a YEAR ago, and Precise is supposed to be a LTS. It really makes one think about CentOS. If this was a minor bug, it's one thing, but this isn't a minor bug, IMO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967410 Title: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/samba/+bug/967410/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 967410] Re: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers
I've spent something like 10 hours now (debugging from 1000 miles away), and the other party has gone to bed. I just now got my printers to rename. This works for renaming the printer (where the heck is the name stored??) (var is on an different file system, so my path is different) symbolic links screw things up, by the way. [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP printing = cups printcap name = cups [printers] comment = All Printers browseable = yes # path = /var/spool/samba path = /pub/root/var/spool printable = yes printer admin = @lpadmin guest ok = yes ; read only = yes create mask = 0700 valid users = someuser [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path =/pub/root/var/lib/samba/printers #path = /var/lib/samba/printers browseable = yes guest ok = no # read only = no write list = root I just did an apt-get update, and can confirm I am on the latest samba/cups with 12.04.1. I used the 64bit server install CD. This bug still exists. This is bull. I could be developing open source, instead, I'm trying to get samba to print. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967410 Title: Windows clients cannot connect to shared printers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/samba/+bug/967410/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
