2013-10-16doc: add "spoolss: architecture" parameter usageDavid Disseldorp1-0/+15
Windows spoolss print clients only allow association of server-side drivers with printers when the driver architecture matches the advertised print server architecture. Samba's spoolss print server architecture can be changed using this parameter.

2013-10-14param: disable print notify backchannel by defaultDavid Disseldorp1-6/+4
In handling RemoteFindFirstPrinterChangeNotifyEx requests, the spoolss server can establish a "backchannel" connection to the print client, as a mechanism for sending print notifications. This behaviour is governed by the "print notify backchannel" smb.conf parameter. This change sets "print notify backchannel" to "no" by default, which sees Samba respond to RemoteFindFirstPrinterChangeNotifyEx requests with WERR_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE. In recieving such a response, print clients can fall back to polling for print queue changes.

2011-01-07s3-printing: Initiate pcap reload from parent smbdDavid Disseldorp1-3/+1
Since commit 7022554, smbds share a printcap cache (printer_list.tdb), therefore ordering of events between smbd processes is important when updating printcap cache information. Consider the following two process example: 1) smbd1 receives HUP or printcap cache time expiry 2) smbd1 checks whether pcap needs refresh, it does 3) smbd1 marks pcap as refreshed 4) smbd1 forks child1 to obtain cups printer info 5) smbd2 receives HUP or printcap cache time expiry 6) smbd2 checks whether pcap needs refresh, it does not (due to step 3) 7) smbd2 reloads printer shares prior to child1 completion (stale pcap) 8) child1 completion, pcap cache (printer_list.tdb) is updated by smbd1 9) smbd1 reloads printer shares based on new pcap information In this case both smbd1 and smbd2 are reliant on the pcap update performed on child1 completion. The prior commit "reload shares after pcap cache fill" ensures that smbd1 only reloads printer shares following pcap update, however smbd2 continues to present shares based on stale pcap data. This commit addresses the above problem by driving pcap cache and printer share updates from the parent smbd process. 1) smbd0 (parent) receives a HUP or printcap cache time expiry 2) smbd0 forks child0 to obtain cups printer info 3) child0 completion, pcap cache (printer_list.tdb) is updated by smbd0 4) smbd0 reloads printer shares 5) smbd0 notifies child smbds of pcap update via message_send_all() 6) child smbds read fresh pcap data and reload printer shares This architecture has the additional advantage that only a single process (the parent smbd) requests printer information from the printcap backend. Use time_mono in housekeeping functions As suggested by Björn Jacke.

The default timeout for connections to CUPS servers is set to 5 minutes in the CUPS libraries. The smbd hangs on startup until the timeout is reached if the CUPS server is unreachable. This parameter makes the timeout configurable. The default value is set to 30 seconds. Karolin
