Samba -- Can't make it work!

(1/3) > >>

R.M. Klippstein:
I finally got a Xerox printer to work with eCS, now I need to share it with three other eCS/OS2 boxes on a lan. So I've installed Samba Version 3.3.16-eCS 1.1.4-804 on the machine with the printer, running eCS 2.1. It installed fine and both NMBD & SMBD is running but thats as good as it gets! Anything I try to do gives "SYS0065: Network access is denied." Trying to log on as a user -- Root, guest or other user & password entries throws the same error, "Find SMB/CIFS machines" finds no machines as long as all boxes are running eCS. But with one box booted to SuSE 12.2 it see's that machine as well as the eCS boxes. But trying to do anything with the server box gives the "Network access is denied" error.
  Is it possible there are problems with the veraion of Samba I'm using or more likely problem with me?¿?!
  Thanks for any comments.

Hi Klipp - can't help with the samba printing, but you could always run lprd on the os2 box, and use the slpr port driver on the other clients....

R.M. Klippstein:
Hey Paul, now thats a thought! If I can't get Samba to cooperate I'll try that route! --- Thanks

P.S. I'm still "Dukeing it out" with that Samsung CLP-365w, but so far its winning! --- no cigar yet!

Herwig Bauernfeind:
Hi,
something must have gone wrong with user/pw setup.

I'd suggest to set loglevel to 5, start Samba, try to log in, stop Samba.
collect all the log files and send them to herwig.bauernfeind at bitwiseworks.com and I will take alook at it.

Kind regards,
Herwig

ivan:
Herwig, do you have a how-to to get SMB printing working on OS/2 over a network to a password protected print server? 

I have tried many times and failed every time - usually with some message about connecting to a password protected print server yet I can print to the same password protected print server from windows running in VirtualBox on the same OS/2 machine.
