I have a RedHat 9 installation running XFS. Cups 1.1.17-13 is installed I have compiled and installed Samba 2.2.8a and everything appears to be working apart from a minor printing problem. After I have installed a printer on my Win2K workstation I can print via samba to the cups printer using the windows PCL print driver and it works fine. However the printer status is always 'Access denied, unable to connect'.
I get the following entries in the log file for my machine :- [2003/06/10 12:28:24, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_printername_ok(388) Unable to get printer status for ::{2227a280-3aea-1069-a2de-08002b30309d} - client-error-not-found [2003/06/10 12:28:24, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) gb-desktop (192.168.1.250) couldn't find service ::{2227a280-3aea-1069-a2de-08002b30309d} My samba configuration :- [global] workgroup = ASCOT netbios name = DIBBLER server string = SAMBA-LDAP PDC Server encrypt passwords = Yes passwd program = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-passwd.pl -o %u passwd chat = *new*password* %n\n *new*password* %n\n *successfully* unix password sync = Yes log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log log level = 5 ; remember to lower the log level in real life :-) max log size = 0 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 domain logons = Yes os level = 80 preferred master = False domain master = True dns proxy = No wins support = Yes ; SAMBA-LDAP declarations ldap suffix = dc=ASCOT.WEBSCREEN-TECHNOLOGY,dc=COM ldap admin dn = cn=Manager,dc=ASCOT.WEBSCREEN-TECHNOLOGY,dc=COM ldap port = 389 ldap server = 127.0.0.1 ldap ssl = No load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name = cups ; Deactivate opportunistic locks (wised) ; opLocks = False ; encoding to french ; character set = iso8859-1 ; using smbldap-tools to add machines add user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl -w %u ; users and groups allowed to be 'Domain Admins' domain admin group = " @"Domain Admins" " [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 browseable = No [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /usr/local/samba/netlogon guest ok = Yes [profiles] path = /data/profiles writeable = yes browseable = no create mode = 0644 directory mode = 0755 guest ok = yes [samba] path=/data/samba writable = yes force create mode = 660 force directory mode = 770 create mode = 660 directory mode = 770 mangle case = yes case sensitive = no default case = lower preserve case = yes short preserve case = no valid users = @users force group = users [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = No public = yes guest ok = yes writable = no printer admin = root -- Gareth Blades Webscreen Technology Index House St Georges Lane Ascot, Berkshire SL5 7EU, UK Tel +44 (0) 1344 636339 http://www.webscreen-technology.com -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
