Hi,
Okay, after playing around a little bit for a while i still gotta come and ask here. I got my printer setup on my suse 10.1 server system and i can print just fine with my Suse 10.2 client but not with the Windows client(s). In Windows i can browse for the printer and it shows it up nicely. Double click tells me that it'll download the driver to the system but then it still can't find it and i will need to install it manually. Anyways, once done this, i can nicely add it to my windows printer(s) but when i try to print something it tells me "Access denied, unable to connect". I'm not reallly sure what's wrong since i can print from my suse 10.2 client just fine. Can anyone help me? This would be appreciated! Thanks tons!
Ron,
I don't know if my original post got through, if so I apologize, but in addition to the above make sure you see "man lppasswd" and make sure the windows user and password have an entry in lppasswd because windows tries to auth by sending the windows login and password.
Really? Can't i just open it up for the whole network with no authentication? Does every Windows user need to be added? I tried: lppasswd -a 'Ron Eggler' and got this: server:~ # lppasswd -a 'Ron Eggler' Enter password: {no password so i hit [enter]} Enter password again: {[enter] again} lppasswd: Sorry, password rejected. Your password must be at least 6 characters long, cannot contain your username, and must contain at least one letter and number. server:~ # So does it require a Windows password? Hmm weird, there must be a possibility to just open it up somehow i think, no? -- chEErs Ron -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
