Installation and Upgrades / Samba Printer Sharing - Windows Driver Upload
« on: April 15, 2014, 12:47:42 am »
Hi All
Sorry if this a repeat of something however I have been googling literally all night and cannot find anyone with the exact same problem.
Basically I have followed the guides at https://forum.zentyal.org/index.php?topic=5395.0 and https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_as_a_print_server (making allowances for the fact that i am using both Vista and Win7) however on each machine, i select the driver i want to upload, but when it gets to the point of uploading it comes up with the error:
"An error occured while copying file <filename>
Cannot copy file to the destination directory.
Click Retry to retry the operation or Cancel to"
All my printers are set up in CUPS (using the linux drivers available from respective manufacturers) and appear in the Printer Sharing module within the webadmin. Some of the results i came across suggested access issues with print$ share, which seems to be confirmed when i try changing the ACL within the windows environment as suggested in the Samba Wiki guide, this results in an 'Access Denied' error.
I also granted rpc rights to SePrintOperatorPrivilege but this also did not work, however i believe this is supposed to allow write acess?
As a Domain Admin, i would have presumed that access is already allowed for Domain Admins to the print$ share, and the XP guide makes no mention of anything to the contrary.
I really have tried all that I can think of but still to no avail, and I would be grateful to anyone who would be able to shed some light on how i can get this running so that i can upload the necessary drivers.
FYI, i am currently running 3.2. If anymore info is needed to assist with anything please let me know.
Thanking you in advance.
