NAME

- testprns - check printer name for validity with smbd -

-

SYNOPSIS

- -

testprns printername [printcapname] -

-

DESCRIPTION

- -

This program is part of the Samba suite. -

testprns is a very simple test program to determine whether a -given printer name is valid for use in a service to be provided by -smbd. -

"Valid" in this context means "can be found in the printcap -specified". This program is very stupid - so stupid in fact that it -would be wisest to always specify the printcap file to use. -

-

OPTIONS

- -

-

-

printername
The printer name to validate. -

Printer names are taken from the first field in each record in the -printcap file, single printer names and sets of aliases separated by -vertical bars ("|") are recognized. Note that no validation or -checking of the printcap syntax is done beyond that required to -extract the printer name. It may be that the print spooling system is -more forgiving or less forgiving than testprns. However, if -testprns finds the printer then smbd should -do so as well. -

-

printcapname
This is the name of the printcap file within -which to search for the given printer name. -

If no printcap name is specified testprns will attempt to scan the -printcap file name specified at compile time. -

-

-

FILES

- -

/etc/printcap This is usually the default printcap file to -scan. See printcap (5). -

-

DIAGNOSTICS

- -

If a printer is found to be valid, the message "Printer name -<printername> is valid" will be displayed. -

If a printer is found to be invalid, the message "Printer name -<printername> is not valid" will be displayed. -

All messages that would normally be logged during operation of the -Samba daemons are logged by this program to the -file test.log in the current directory. The program runs at -debuglevel 3, so quite extensive logging information is written. The -log should be checked carefully for errors and warnings. -

Other messages are self-explanatory. -
