manpagedescription()
|
|
|
|
This program is part of the bf(Samba) suite.
|
|
|
|
bf(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
|
|
url(bf(smbd))(smbd.8.html).
|
|
|
|
"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.

|
|
|
|
label(printername)
|
|
dit(bf(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 recognised. 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 bf(testprns). However, if
|
|
bf(testprns) finds the printer then url(bf(smbd))(smbd.8.html) should
|
|
do so as well.
|
|
|
|
label(printcapname)
|
|
dit(bf(printcapname)) This is the name of the printcap file within
|
|
which to search for the given printer name.
|
|
|
|
If no printcap name is specified bf(testprns) will attempt to scan the
|
|
printcap file name specified at compile time.
|
|
|
|
enddit()
|
|
|
|
label(FILES)
|
|
manpagesection(FILES)
|
|
|
|
bf(/etc/printcap) This is usually the default printcap file to
|
|
scan. See bf(printcap (5)).

|
label(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
|
|
url(bf(Samba))(samba.7.html) daemons are logged by this program to the
|
|
file tt(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.

The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
|
|
Andrew Tridgell email(samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au). Samba is now developed
|
|
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the
|
|
Linux kernel is developed.
|
|
|
|
The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. The man page
|
|
sources were converted to YODL format (another excellent piece of Open
|
|
Source software) and updated for the Samba2.0 release by Jeremy
|
|
Allison, email(samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au).
