hi alvin i appreciate your interest :)
heres the smb.conf i think the smb.conf file is ok, but that debian have some sort of security check somewhere which i need to configure? (i have the win box in /etc/hosts), maybe something in /etc/lprng/lpd.perms ... :o) martin [global] interfaces = 192.168. printing = bsd printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes guest account = mac invalid users = root ; "security = user" is always a good idea. This will require a Unix account ; in this server for every user accessing the server. security = share ; Change this for the workgroup your Samba server will part of workgroup = GRGROUP server string = %h server (Samba %v) ; If you want Samba to log though syslog only then set the following ; parameter to 'yes'. Please note that logging through syslog in ; Samba is still experimental. syslog only = no ; We want Samba to log a minimum amount of information to syslog. Everything ; should go to /var/log/{smb,nmb} instead. If you want to log through ; syslog you should set the following parameter to something higher. syslog = 0; ; This socket options really speed up Samba under Linux, according to my ; own tests. socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096 SO_RCVBUF=4096 ; Passwords are encrypted by default. This way the latest Windows 95 and NT ; clients can connect to the Samba server with no problems. encrypt passwords = true ; It's always a good idea to use a WINS server. If you want this server ; to be the WINS server for your network change the following parameter ; to "yes". Otherwise leave it as "no" and specify your WINS server ; below (note: only one Samba server can be the WINS server). ; Read BROWSING.txt for more details. wins support = no ; If this server is not the WINS server then specify who is it and uncomment ; next line. ; wins server = 172.16.0.10 ; Please read BROWSING.txt and set the next four parameters according ; to your network setup. There is no valid default so they are commented ; out. ; os level = 0 ; domain master = no ; local master = no ; preferred master = no ; What naming service and in what order should we use to resolve host names ; to IP addresses name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast ; This will prevent nmbd to search for NetBIOS names through DNS. dns proxy = no ; Name mangling options preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes ; This boolean parameter controlls whether Samba attempts to sync. the Unix ; password with the SMB password when the encrypted SMB password in the ; /etc/samba/smbpasswd file is changed. unix password sync = yes ; For Unix password sync. to work on a Debian GNU/Linux system, the following ; parameters must be set (thanks to Augustin Luton ; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for sending the correct chat script for ; the passwd program in Debian Potato). passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n . ; The following parameter is useful only if you have the linpopup package ; installed. The samba maintainer and the linpopup maintainer are ; working to ease installation and configuration of linpopup and samba. ; message command = /bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/linpopup "%f" "%m" %s; rm %s' & ; The default maximum log file size is 5 MBytes. That's too big so this ; next parameter sets it to 1 MByte. Currently, Samba rotates log ; files (/var/log/{smb,nmb} in Debian) when these files reach 1000 KBytes. ; A better solution would be to have Samba rotate the log file upon ; reception of a signal, but for now on, we have to live with this. log file = /var/log/samba-log.%m max log size = 1000 lock directory = /var/lock/samba obey pam restrictions = yes [uploads] comment = Upload Directory path = /upload writable = true browsable = yes guest ok = yes [home] comment = Home Directories path = /home security = user read only = no browseable = yes guest ok = no create mode = 0750 ; By default, the home directories are exported read only. Change next ; parameter to "no" if you want to be able to write to them. ; read only = no ; File creation mask is set to 0700 for security reasons. If you want to ; create files with group=rw permissions, set next parameter to 0775. ; create mask = 0775 ; Directory creation mask is set to 0700 for security reasons. If you want to ; create dirs. with group=rw permissions, set next parameter to 0775. ; directory mask = 0775 [printers] comment = All Printers security = server path = /var/spool/lpd/lp browseable = no printable = yes public = yes writable = no create mode = 0700 [phaser] comment = Tektronix Phaser 560 security = share use client driver = yes path = /var/spool/lpd/phaser printer name = phaser writable = yes public = yes printable = yes print command = /usr/bin/lpr -r -h -P %p %s On Tue, Apr 30, 2002 at 05:40:26PM -0700, Alvin Oga wrote: > > > hi ya martin > > the printcap looks okay... > > what does the printcap look like for the linux box > connected with the phaser printer??? > - what does its smb.conf look like ?? > > c ya > alvin > > On Tue, 30 Apr 2002, Martin A.
