Ok..I can not get any windows clients to see the printer drivers associated with
each printer on my Samba Server. I am running RH 8.0 and Samba 2.2.8a. I am
trying to utilize CUPS Printing + ESP Print Pro. Here is my smb.conf
[global]
workgroup = STEDS
netbios name = EDSHARE
server string = Steds File Share
interfaces = 209.99.108.82 127.0.0.1
bind interfaces only = Yes
encrypt passwords = Yes
log level = 2
time server = Yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192
printcap name = cups
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 527 -c Machine -s
/bin/false -M %u
logon script = logon.bat
logon path = \\%N\prifiles\%u
domain logons = Yes
os level = 255
preferred master = Yes
domain master = Yes
wins support = Yes
ldap server = ldap1.stedwards.edu
ldap port = 9111
ldap suffix = dc=stedwards,dc=edu
ldap admin dn = cn=Manager,dc=stedwards,dc=edu
ldap ssl = no
invalid users = bin daemon sys man postfix mail ftp
admin users = root coreyh
printing = cups
load printers = yes
printcap name = cups
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browsable = No
public = Yes
guest ok = Yes
writeable = No
printable = Yes
printer admin = root coreyh
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /usr/local/drivers
browsable = No
guest ok = No
read only = yes
write list = root coreyh
Now in ESP Print I have all my printers setup and I run the Export Command to
export my Printers to Samba. The printers show up in samba, you can select the
printers and them to your local desktop (XP, 95/98 verified) but they do not have
a server side driver associated with them. How in the world do I get a driver
associated with a printer in samba so that my clients do not have to install a
driver themselves?
