When printing the current user will show in the windows print queue status (in windows) but the user shows as unknown in log /var/log/cups/page_log This breaks applications like papercut that need to know user info These are being printed from server 2008 In samba 3 this works fine A piece of cups config <Printer ResourceRoomC> AuthInfoRequired none Info ResourceRoomC DeviceURI ipp://10.0.1.215/printer State Idle StateTime 1348253332 Reason none-report Type 4 Accepting Yes Shared Yes JobSheets none none QuotaPeriod 0 PageLimit 0 KLimit 0 OpPolicy default ErrorPolicy stop-printer Version 4.1.0pre1-GIT-1bf209d tail /var/log/cups/page_log EastHallCopier 17 unknown [05/Oct/2012:18:48:57 -0500] 1 1 - localhost smbprn.bzgPIx - - EastHallCopier 19 unknown [05/Oct/2012:19:01:07 -0500] 1 1 - localhost smbprn.LeZcW2 - - WestHallCopier 20 unknown [05/Oct/2012:19:02:15 -0500] 1 1 - localhost smbprn.fDWe48 - -
OK I got this fixed, but something is still wrong with current builds I had to do what was in http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/Winbind ln -s /usr/local/samba/lib/libnss_winbind.so.2 /lib/libnss_winbind.so ln -s /lib/libnss_winbind.so /lib/libnss_winbind.so.2 there was a winbind in /lib64 i think this is why the symbolic links were not created. this was caused by winbind already being installed before install samba samba-winbind-clients.x86_64 so i am closing this ticket
