PostPosted: Mon Apr 12, 2004 5:11 pm    Post subject: HELP: Windows 98, Laserjet III, and Samba (smb.conf) Reply with quote

I installed samba and started the service. I see the printer and can access it from the print manager in Windows 98 on my other computer. However, when I attempt to print, it gives me an error message with a retry and cancel button. I think the problem liies in my smb.conf file, because I basically copied and pasted it from the gentoo samba how-to. (I did change my host address to my Gentoo IP address, and I added the correct workgroup, but that's about it.)

Here is my smb.conf:
Code:

[global]

workgroup = wokr
server string = NICK
encrypt passwords = True
security = user
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
domain master = Yes
local master = Yes
preferred master = Yes
os level = 65
dns proxy = No
name resolve order = lmhosts host bcast
bind interfaces only = True
interfaces = eth0
hosts deny = ALL
hosts allow = 172.17.17.55 172.17.17.255
debug level = 1
create mask = 0644
directory mask = 0755
level2 oplocks = True
read raw = no
write cache size = 262144

[printers]
comment = All Printer
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no


Yes, our workgroup is wokr. (not work)

My printers section:
Code:
[printers]
  comment = All Printers
  path= /var/spool/samba
  guest ok = Yes
  printable = Yes
  use client driver = Yes
  browseable = No

Can you check your samba logs to see what prints out there when you try to print?

Also, you have a hosts allow for just a couple of machines.. Is your Windows box one of those IPs ??

Er, I thought the host allow was for my IP address. I changed this to my windows machine's IP. You would think this solves the problem. But no...

Where do I find the samba log?

Should be in /var/log/samba/ as per your config.

I would also change the config by commenting out the hosts deny and hosts allow entries till you have the printing working.. also, you are re-starting the samba service after the changes to the config file, right ??

Try the following:
Code:
[global]
  netbios name = NICK
  server string = NICK
  workgroup = wokr
  security = share
  log file = /var/log/samba/samba.log
  socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
  encrypt passwords = yes
  wins support = yes
  load printers = yes

[printers]
  comment = All Printers
  path= /var/spool/samba
  guest ok = Yes
  printable = Yes
  use client driver = Yes
  browseable = No

This is what I have and it works for me.. I do not use domains, so this setup should be work workgroups...

The only log that is valid is the samba.log... the others should no longer be used (if you are using the config I posted).

Also, can you check that the cups daemon is running and that you can print from the local machine ...

Yes, I am using your config file.

Yes, I am running the CUPS daemon.

Yes, I can print locally.

I am running out of ideas. Maybe the problem lies beyond the config file?
