Hi,
I have our Win95/Win98 clients using Samba to print to our dept. networked
printers. Recently I noticed that the printer spool directory is filling
up. Should this be happening? If not, what do I need to change in order
for the file to just appear "briefly" and then be removed?
Lines from smb.conf
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printers.conf
load printers = yes
; these commands are needed to print and remove print jobs
print command = /usr/ucb/lpr -r -P%p %s
lpq command = /usr/ucb/lpq -P%p
lprm command = /usr/ucb/lprm -P%p %j
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /usr/local/samba/print
available = yes
browseable = yes
printable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes
create mode = 0700
Some entries in /usr/local/samba/print
-rwx------ 1 mb9q users 2485713 Aug 9 15:07 mbpc.0kkF_F*
-rwx------ 1 mb9q users 2485713 Aug 9 15:03 mbpc.0pRpEa*
-rwx------ 1 mb9q users 2485713 Aug 9 15:00 mbpc.zd1gG_*
I'm running Samba 2.0.6 as a PDC (encrypted passwords) so Win95/Win98
users have to login. All WinNT pc clients are printing directly to our
Unix print server and the printer queue.
Thanks,
Melissa
