|
|
something in kde made me "upgrade" to samba 4
now network printing fails
I need to share printer with windows, mac and linux machines; this has always
worked in the past (samba 3)
when a remote machine requests to print I get a cups error:
Quote: | "Session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE" |
smbclient -L for the server machine reports:
Quote: | smbclient -L 192.168.0.3
Enter wesx1's password:

Here is my smb.conf file:
Quote: | # Samba config file created using SWAT
# from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2001/09/22 21:27:29
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = UOFT
server string = Samba Server %v
interfaces = lo eth1
bind interfaces only = yes
hosts allow = 127.0.0.1 192.168.0.0/24
hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0
# security = user
wins support = yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
printcap name = cups
load printers = yes
printing = cups
guest ok = yes
[printers]
comment = All Printers
security = server
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = yes
# to allow user 'guest account' to print.
guest ok = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
create mode = 0770
public = yes |
trying to print a file via command line with lpr the cups error log shows:
Quote: | E [19/Feb/2017:10:10:10 -0500] [Job 66] Session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

answering my own question, a deeper dive into the internet came up
with a possible solution
add to my smb.conf in global section:
Code: | security = user
guest account = root
map to guest = Bad User
|
and to my printer share:
Code: | force create mode = 0755
force directory mode = 0755
|
I can now print from remote machines but I am not sure these
changes are a good idea ...
if anyone wants to comment on that please do - I'm waiting a bit to add "solved" _________________ .... there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth
