Hello,
please help me:
After searching for nearly 2 weeks for a solution, I have to ask for
assistance:
System:
debian sarge - update from an working installaton on woody (without printing)
Now the samba server joins ADS, authenticates users, but should also provide
printers.
I have installed cups, configured my smb.conf:
---------------------------------
[global]
load printers = yes
printing = cups
printcap name = printcap.cups
[print$]
path = /var/samba
browseable = no
write list = root
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/cups
browseable = no
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
[kyo1750]
comment = S/W-Laserdrucker Kyocera FS-1750
printeable = yes
path = /var/spool/samba/kyo1750
--------------------------------
printcap.cups :
kyo1750|kyo1750:rm=riwake1:rp=kyo1750:
--------------------------------
OK, and here is my problem:
no printer appear in network-neigbourhood - I can not connect
to the printer from any windows box, but printing the testpage from cups
works fine.
Wher should I look for more debugging?
Did I miss anything?
Or is my understanding of printing wrong?
I am absolutely without an idea where to go from here on.
Reading the samba-docs did not help me really, and the new book
"samba-3 by example" is on the way to me.
Thank you for any hint.
