Hello, I'm working on setting up a corporate print server with samba 3.2.0-2.17 on a Fedora 9 install. I've been able to get the services up and running and added several printers via the cups interface, also been able to upload the windows drivers. This all works well, printing also works well. The problem that I am running into is that the old print jobs seem to be getting stored somewhere in samba and i've been unable to figure out how to turn this option off. I've set the
PreserveJobHistory No PreserveJobFiles No options in my cupsd.conf file though this does not effect the queues viewed by the clients, only the jobs viewable via the cups interface. Even once the jobs have been manually deleted from the queue and no longer show up when it is opened up, windows still shows job counts in the printers and fax folder. These job counts seem to be getting stored in the /var/lib/samba/printing*.tdb files. If i delete these the print count goes back to 0 but will start counting back up as jobs move through the printer. My smb.conf is very basic [Global] netbios name = twcps01 workgroup = <DOMAIN server string = Print Server wins server = x.x.x.x security = user encrypt passwords = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 interfaces = lo eth0 bind interfaces only = yes username map=/etc/samba/smbusers passdb backend=tdbsam null passwords = no hide unreadable = yes hide dot files = yes printcap name = cups printing = cups cups options = raw use client driver = no load printers = yes [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no public = yes guest ok = yes writable = no printable = yes [print$] comment = Windows Client Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/windows_printer_drivers browseable = yes guest ok = yes read only = no -- -------------------- Chris Jeter Senior IT Technician The World Company 785.312.6911 -------------------- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
