Hello,
I've got a problem with printing on a Windows 2K box. Printing from
that box to a samba server via the normal print mechanism works fine.
The problem is when the person needs to print to a lpt port. The
capture succeeds, but when the file is copied to lpt2 it never gets
printed.
There are other machines that can do the capture and copy to the lpt
port but they are Win 9x. The files being copied are plot files
generated by a cad program.
I noticed in the How-To that using enumports might be needed to make
using lpt ports work. It's not working though and I'm still getting the
same error message. I've just started using disable spoolss = yes but
that doesn't seem to help either.
All relevant information is below. Any help is appreciated.

This is the command being used to capture the port.
net use lpt2: \\server-bristol\hp450c
Samba version 2.2.5
RedHat 7.2
Windows 2K with the latest service packs.
smb.conf
[global]
......
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
enumports command=/home/samba/ports.sh
disable spoolss = yes
printing = lprng
...
security = share
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
guest ok = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
public = yes
use client driver = yes
This is the error messages that I'm getting in the log file for that
machine.
