printer name not returned correctly

[Ronan Waide]

Hi,

still messing about with printers. If I create a printer like so:

[TestP]
printer name = Test_Printer
printable = yes

and then do rpcclient enumprinters 2 against the server, I get:

        servername:[\\server]
        printername:[\\server\TestP]
        sharename:[TestP]
        portname:[HPLaserJet4050Series]
        drivername:[HP LaserJet 4050 Series PCL 5e]
        comment:[Created by rpcclient]
        location:[]
        sepfile:[]
        printprocessor:[winprint]
        datatype:[RAW]
        parameters:[]
        attributes:[0x1018]
        priority:[0x0]
        defaultpriority:[0x0]
        starttime:[0x0]
        untiltime:[0x0]
        status:[0x0]
        cjobs:[0x0]
        averageppm:[0x0]

I would have expected printername to be \\server\Test_Printer, since
that's what my NT4 box is returning for a similar setup. I've traced
through the server code and it looks okay where it's retrieving the
info from the tdb file, so that would suggest that the information is
incorrect in the tdb file. And sure enough, ntprinters.tdb has TestP
in it several times, but no sign of Test_Printer. The default info2
structure assumes a printer name of \\server\share, so maybe that
would be a good place to start.

Cheers,
Waider.
