[Samba] printers - network path was not found

Thrane Tue, 25 Jan 2005 10:19:05 -0800

Im trying to add a PDF printer to an existing configuration.

The original setup for the printer was inspired by an article from : http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue72/bright.html, this worked relativly easy on my workstation while i was testing it. there for i expect the configuration works.

The problem began when i exportet the configuration to my server at first I could connect to the share but the prints didnt contain any thing, the output to the spool dir (/tmp) was corrupt.

I then discovedered that the server was running an old version 2.2.x so i upgraded it to 3.0.10-Debian.

My problem is now that when i try to connect to the printer share i get the message "network path was not found." even though the name is displayed when browsing the server.

the only output from the logs that indicates an error is this: 0014 status code: WERR_INVALID_PRINTER_NAME from the /var/log/samba/log.client log.

This is how the test configuration file looks.
