Public bug reported: Binary package hint: smbclient
I am using Ubuntu Jaunty 9.10 e/w all current updates. smbclient: Installed: 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 First let me state that the Windows Networked/Shared printer can be utilized just fine by two other Linux computers on mine - (1) a Dell 910 Netbook running Ubuntu 8.04 and another computer running Xubuntu 8.10. I print just fine from these machines, but NOT Jaunty 9.04. There are a number of posts in GENERAL regarding Jaunty having various problems with Networked Printers, but none quite like my problem. I feel that this is actually a networking/SAMBA issue, so that is why I posted it here. When I try to add a printer attached to and shared on my Windows XP box with System->Administration->Printing, New->Network Printer->Windows Printer via SAMBA, Browse - I get right up to where clicking the little gray diamonds should reveal a networked printer and Poof the dialog crashes and is gone. Note: Squirrel is the hostname of my Windows XP box. If I browse Places->Network->Windows Network->MSHOME->SQUIRREL, the Windows shares are seen but without a printer. Instead there is a networked folder named Print$ which I suspect is the printer being incorrectly recognized. I have attached an image of what I see in the browse network window to my XP machine. ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Jaunty 9.04 Blind to XP's Shared Network Printer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368273 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
