[Samba] Extremely frustrating intermitant printing problem.
We are running Suse Linux 8.2 with Samba 3.0.0.1 and Cups as our print server on a network with windows 98 and 2000 clients and HP1300, 2100, 2200 and 4050 printers. We are experiencing an intermitant error whereby the printer on the client machine will set itself to work off line and sometimes freeze up the pc when an attempt is made to print from it. This error does not happen in any consistant way an I have checked the samba and cups logs and cannot find anything which would seem to relate to the problem. I would be very grateful for any help provided by anyone who's experienced a similar problem or has any ideas how we can overcome this.

[Samba] CUPS printing with Samba.
We're running Cups and Samba on a SUSE Linux 8.2 server with Windows 98, NT and 2000 clients. We are experiencing intermittant problems whereby printers on the client PC's are setting themselves to offline when print jobs are sent to them. The problem is I'm finding it difficult to diagnose the cause of this as it isn't happening consistently in that we'll have 25 client pc's in a room set to print to the same network printer and only 4 or 5 of them will set the printer to offline while the other 20 will print fine. All our printers are HP 2100, 2200 and 4050's. I have checked the error log in CUPS and there are none that seem to pertain to the problem. In the Samba logs though there are a series of errors stating :- ERROR: NULL dest in safe_strcpy I don't know if this is related to the problem but would appreciate any help with this problem Cheers Brett -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
