[Samba] Extremely frustrating intermitant printing problem.

2004-01-06 Thread Brett Roberts
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.

Cheers

Brett.

[Samba] CUPS printing with Samba.

2003-11-13 Thread Brett Roberts
 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
