[Samba] printer offline
Hi, I have a samba pdc as a file and domain server and another computer which is only a print server. The print server is set up to allow domain logons via the pdc. It runs Linux with cups and samba. Samba is compiled for Cups Problem is, from a win98 or any machine, I can see the printer but it is marked offline. Nothing i do, seems to make it online. How can I force Samba to make cups printer online ? Regards Braam -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] standalone file and print server inside SAMBA network problem
Hi,
I have an existing Samba network consisting of a SAMBA PDC with win98
and XP clients (there is also some linux machines on the network
connecting via NIS/NFS.
Everything is running nicely.
Now I want to add a samba print server to the domain.
All this server needs to do is share a printer for the domain.
For some reason I cannot get this printer server to share anything.
Not even it's home directories.
I have tried various options, used testparm etc.
When I browse the network with a win98 machine and I go to the
printserver, it asks for a network password.
No matter what password you type in there is accepted.
Please help.
Specs:
Both servers running SuSE9.0 with Samba
With smbstatus on printserver I get
Samba version 2.2.8a-SuSE
Service uid gid pid machine

[Samba] windows packet drop problem
Hi all, I replaced a window$ 2000 server with a SuSE 8.0 installation running Samba. info xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = our.internal.ip.addresses The Server have the following duties: 1. Provides DHCP for the internal network xxx.xxx.xxx.64 to xxx.xxx.xxx.128 netmask 255.255.255.192 2. the server also acts as the file and login server for the internal windows and linux network. The default gateway of the internal network is xxx.xxx.xxx.65 which is running on an old FreeBSD firewall. My problem is: When I use one of the internal windows 98SE or XP pc's , it seems like packets are dropped. For instance when I ping an address outside the firewall, let's say xxx.xxx.xxx.7, I get good response times but after a few pings, some of the pings stays unanswered. Even when I fixed the IP of the windows PC, the packets were still dropped. BUT, when I use a linux PC on the internal network, (was not log on to the samba server) with a fixed IP, xxx.xxx.xxx.123 no packets are dropped. I do not think it is a problem with the SuSE DHCP as it occurs with a fixed IP windows pc also. Unless there is some setting I have to make on the windows machines. Hope you can help.
