[Samba] Unstable printing w/3.2.0
I've upgraded my print server to CentOS5 w/Samba 3.2.0. While it works we are experiencing numerous irritating issues. I'm curious if anyone else is experencing these issues. 1.) Print jobs do not clear out of the CIFS queue. So we now have printers that show they have over 1,000 jobs in the queue although the queue is empty. This is a bug scheduled to be fixed in 3.2.1 (I believe) so at least I'm not crazy on this one. 2.) When attempting to upload some drivers the process fails with This driver is not compatible with Windows XP. Although it is the latest driver for HP's Laserjet 4200 series. This occurs with both PCL and Postscript drivers. 3.) After working perfectly for awhile a specific queue will stop working and users will get an Access Denied messgaes while other queues using the same driver will work perfectly. Then switching the driver on the server around will sometimes make it work. Othertimes the driver needs to be deleted, re-added, and reassigned to the printer to make the Access Denied message disappear. Does 3.2.0 make any changes to the TDB format? If not, is it possible to drop backwards to a stable version? Printing via LPD or IPP directly to CUPS works flawlessly every time.

This is a bug, and it is already fixed (for 3.2.1). You are not crazy! :-) Cheers - Michael -- Michael Adam [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] SerNet GmbH, Bahnhofsallee 1b, 37081 Göttingen phone: +49-551-37-0, fax: +49-551-37-9 AG Göttingen, HRB 2816, GF: Dr. Johannes Loxen http://www.SerNet.DE, mailto: Info @ SerNet.DE pgpVHKoFWJnwH.pgp Description: PGP signature -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
