[Samba] printing = cups issue ....
Using samba 3.4.9 and cups 1.4.3 I have "printing = cups", but for some reason samba is not picking up the cups printers or creating the printers share. The problem is obviously this, from the samba logs: [2011/03/28 14:09:43, 0] printing/print_cups.c:103(cups_connect) Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost:631 - Connection refused However, cupsd is most certainly listening on localhost:631, and an lpstat -a -h localhost gives a list of printers. Why is samba not able to communicate with it? I've turned off all security measures (apparmor, etc.) but still no.

[Samba] cups / samba job control issue
Hi all, I am using cups 1.1.22 with samba 2.2.12 along with winbind, and samba configured as a domain member. For now I'm not able to switch to samba3. My problem is that users printing from windows are unable to control their jobs. Pause, resume or cancel do not work. In windows, the "error processing command" is returned. In cups, when viewing /var/log/cups/access.log, I'll see a line like: localhost - - [23/Nov/2004:15:02:59 -0600] "POST /jobs HTTP/1.1" 401 0 "401" error code indicating "unauthorized". Also note there is no username in the second field, indicating the username was not passed from samba to cups(?), which I think is the heart of the problem. I notice that even though I have: winbind enum users = Yes winbind enum groups = Yes winbind use default domain = Yes ... that "smbstatus" still appends my DOMAIN+ in front of the username - although "getent passwd" or "wbinfo -u" do not. When jobs are submitted, this works - I'll see the the username properly in cups: laserjet-queue username 567 [23/Nov/2004:15:19:50 -0600] 1 1 - winpc In samba I get the following in the logs when attempting to manipulate a (my own) job: [2004/11/23 15:56:25, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_job_delete(482) Unable to cancel job 566 - client-error-not-authorized [2004/11/23 15:56:40, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_job_pause(572) Unable to hold job 569 - client-error-not-authorized I have in [global] printing = cups printcap name = cups I have tried expressly defining the lp commands in my [printers] but that does not help either (it's my impression printing = cups does not use that). This seems clearly an auth problem ... In cups, I have for: AuthType Basic AuthClass User What do I need to do to give users control over their print jobs? If I login to the print server (say, via ssh) with a windows domain account, I can control my print jobs just fine. I don't think this has anything to do with pam, pam is working fine and I can log in to this machine with a windows account and get a shell.

I had the same problem with samba 3 and cups. Versions: samba 3.0 & 3.0.1rc1, cups 1.1.19, red hat 9, red hat ES 2.1, Windows 2K client. Samba and cups both compiled and installed from vanilla sources. Intel PC samba server. Environment: Windows 2K PDC with ADS (mixed mode), samba configured as domain member (no ADS), using winbind to integrate the domain accounts. Roughly 100 printers shared through samba/cups, all jet direct. Samba set up to export printers to windows via cups. Everything worked fine, winbind was working great, samba was exporting the printers, uploading the drivers to the $print share works great. Installing the printer in Windows worked fine. File shares worked fine, no problems there. However, accessing the printer properties from within windows after installing the driver would cause the application to crash, 100% of the time (the error IIRC was something to do with C++). I cranked up my (samba) log level to 10 and couldn't find anything useful to debug this, everything looked normal. Nada in the windowz logs either, but I kinda expect that. I regret I don't have the conf files and exact errors to give you, since I reverted back to samba 2.2.8a and it is working great (this was a while ago). However, I doubt seriously it had anything to do with configuration of samba (which in this case is really pretty straightforward and simple), more likely it was some mystifying bug between samba and windows 2k or my particular environment. Still, I'd like to resolve this issue; I'll be setting up another one as a test and give it another go ... I'm kinda surprised more people aren't having this problem since I was unable to make it work at all. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

I had this exact problem, in fact, if you attempted to get the printer properties from any application it woud crash the app. I had to back down to 2.2.8a. I was using Cups 1.1.19, samba 3.0 and also 3.0.1rc1 Setting up the "point and print" stuff went fine. After the driver was installed to samba, installing and accessing the printer would crash any windows app. There wasn't anything useful in my logs, either. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Winbind add the domain users to the unix environment, so you don't need unix accounts for them to log in.

If you have other unix machines, they can authenticate via samba/windows domain mechanism, without having a local machine (unix) account. Other samba file or print servers can use it to authenticate domain users. In either case, it can't hurt. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

This is done through samba, not cups. There is a utility called "cupsaddsmb" but this offers the postscript ppd to your windows clients, probably not what you want. With samba you just get the permissions right, then add the print driver the same way you do as if you were running all windows. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Once you set "printing = cups" in your smb.conf, the printers defined within cups will automagically show up as printers hosted by this machine to windows. If you are running an NT domain, you should also get winbindd working properly, and define a "print admin" user in your smb.conf. All you need to to add a printer is go the the printers$ share on the samba machine from windows and take a look at the "Advanced" tab. If it is greyed out, you have a permissions problem most likely (look at the print admin" setting). You will also need to set the permissions properly on the spool directory so that users can write to it (or they will not be able to print). -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
