 |
|
I'm trying to set up a Samba server, but I can't figure out how to keep samba from displaying these errors in /var/log/samba/smbd.conf:
| Code: | [2006/07/28 10:31:37, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_cache_reload(85)
Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost - Connection refused
[2006/07/28 10:31:37, 0] printing/print_cups.c:cups_cache_reload(85)
Unable to connect to CUPS server localhost - Connection refused
[2006/07/28 10:31:37, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(597)
Unable to open new log file /var/log/smb/samba.smbd: No such file or directory
[2006/07/28 10:31:37, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(597)
Unable to open new log file /var/log/smb/samba.smbd: No such file or directory
[2006/07/28 10:31:37, 1] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_sam(876)
User local_user in passdb, but getpwnam() fails!
[2006/07/28 10:31:37, 0] smbd/server.c:main(829)
ERROR: failed to setup guest info. |
I know that one of my problems is Samba trying to connect to a non-existen CUPS server and I would like to disable this (I do not want to print anything) but I do not know how.
Two other errors that I don't understand are the | Code: | | Unable to open new log file /var/log/smb/samba.smbd: No such file or directory |
errors when /var/log/smb/samba.smbd does exist!
And the last errors are the user and gues info errors. How can I get past those?

Please post your /etc/samba/smb.conf (with all comments removed, please).

CUPS: Try setting the following parameter in your smb.conf:
| Quote: | | User local_user in passdb, but getpwnam() fails! |
Did you create a Linux user account for "local_user" (is he in /etc/passwd)? If not: Add him.
| Quote: | | Unable to open new log file /var/log/smb/samba.smbd: No such file or directory |
Try replacing %m (which won't work in your setup, AFAIK; man smb.conf) with %M.
