I am driving a Suse 8.2 linux with cups 1.1.18 and samba 2.2.7a.
The problem:
The host serves several printers via cups. If some jobs are in one of
the queues "lpq -Pprinter" or "lpstat -o printer" shows up the complete
listing. Fine.
Connected to the same print queue from a Windows (XP/NT/98/2k) box I
cannot see the complete listing. Sometimes I see some of the jobs, most
of the times I don't see any.
Executing "lpq -S printhost -P printer" on the W2k host gives correct
results.
I connected via smbclient to the (samba-)printer, did a "queue" command
- same result, no or not all jobs are displayed.
My smb.conf (the relevant parts):
--------------------------------------------------------------
[global]
workgroup = UNIKO
netbios name = PRINTHOST
security = SERVER
encrypt passwords = Yes
password server = tricia
time server = Yes
unix extensions = Yes
socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
character set = ISO8859-15
os level = 2
veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/
printing = sysv
printcap name = /etc/printcap
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/tmp
create mask = 0600
printable = Yes
lpq command = /usr/bin/lpstat -o %p
guest ok = no
browseable = No
--------------------------------------------------------------
The problem still appears even if I change
printing = cups
(and yes, my smbd is compiled against cups).
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
