[Samba] rpcclient addprinter error

[Rui Barata]

Hi

I am trying to use rpcclient's addprinter to install a printer automatically in 
a large number of XP workstations (+100)

But I get the following:

1) connecting to a XP workstation works fine

rpcclient -U root sim31%xxxx
rpcclient $>

2) adddriver also works fine. Enumdrivers shows this:
rpcclient $> enumdrivers

[Windows NT x86]
Printer Driver Info 1:

        Driver Name: [Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS]

Printer Driver Info 1:
        Driver Name: [Win2PDF]

result was WERR_INVALID_ENVIRONMENT


3) enumports also works:
rpcclient $> enumports
        Port Name:      [PDFFILE:]
        Port Name:      [COM1:]
        Port Name:      [COM2:]

        Port Name:      [COM4:]
        Port Name:      [FILE:]
        Port Name:      [LPT1:]
        Port Name:      [LPT2:]
        Port Name:      [LPT3:]
        Port Name:      [IR]
        Port Name:      [http://ieplpr1:631/printers/lpsi4]
        Port Name:      [http://ieplpr1:631/printers/prtsrv]
rpcclient $>


4) but addprinter fails, whatever parameters I use, always with the same 
message:
rpcclient $> addprinter test test Win2PDF LPT1:
result was DOS code 0x0000001f
rpcclient $>


Please help

TIA
