I was working with somebody else on this same kind of problem. The packet captures he gave me showed that his router was not returning an IP address for the name. It was learned through nbns. Now in...
I would say that if you don't have another firewall installed you may have found a bug.
So after doing these commands, let's do another sudo iptables -L and see how you rules look afterward.
I do this all the time. However, keep in mind that my career involves network security, so I have a reason to do it. I also do it for friends to show them why their WEP encrypted wireless network is...
Can you give us the output of an ifconfig command? What are the ip addresses of the other PCs - the Windows boxes?
WOTP
From strictly a networking perspective, there should be no problem. I suspect the problem is with iptables. Can we see the output of this:
sudo iptables -L
WOTP
I would be happy to.
The part about "so most will work" made me think about the advice I'd given. No matter what printer you buy, when you get down to a specific model go and find out if it's compatible before you buy it.
I have had several printers. I inherited a Lexmark which I absolutely despised (both in Windows and since there were no drivers for Linux). I have an HP OfficeJet 7210 which works beautifully. I've...
Ah - I should change it to make it a little clearer - the url makes it look like that's what you should enter.
That's a good question - I have no idea. I'm going to do a little more testing tonight and then post a comment to the bug with success/failure. If I hear something I will gladly post the information...
I realized that I'd left something important out of my post. After you upgrade Samba with the patch you should go back in and remove this source from Synaptic. The reason is that any other patches...

Sorry - you are right, it's not very obvious.
In Synaptic Package Manager, go to Settings->Repositories
Under the Third-Party Software tab, click on Add.

You may be running into a (presumably) samba bug. If you want to test this, boot from a 8.04 live CD and attempt to print. In 8.10 samba is dropping the last character from directory and file names...
We may in fact be dealing with a couple of issues. However, I have reported a bug, and if you open firefox, type in:
smb://192.168.5.103/Volume_1
Replacing 192.168.5.103 with the IP address of...
Well, that didn't change a thing for me. I checked and the last character is still being dropped in the packets.
Given that the packet capture shows that the last character of the directory and/or file name is being dropped I am certain that it has nothing to do with a config problem. I do appreciate the...
Ah- that explains it! I thought you were commenting on one of the previous bugs! I apologize - and I hope that my feeble attempt at humor didn't come across the wrong way. I would not have guessed...
Which bug are you talking about? It almost (based only on that you mention the Places menu) sounds like the one I reported, but I can't tell for sure. If you're referring to that, then I'm a worse...
I posted the following in another thread also, but I'm putting it here so it's easy to find:
