Note about upgrading from older versions: ----------------------------------------- It is still the case that there are printing tdbs (ntprinting.tdb, ntforms.tdb, ntdrivers.tdb) which are in latin1 or other encodings. When updating from Samba 3.5 or earlier to Samba 3.6 or 4.0 these tdbs need to be migrated to our new registry based printing management. This means during the migration we also need to do charset conversion. This can only been done manually cause we don't know in which encoding the tdb is. You have to specify the correct code page for the conversion, see iconv -l and Wikipedia [1] for the available codepages. The mostly used one is Windows Latin1 which is CP1252. We've extended the 'net printing dump' and 'net printing migrate' commands to define the encoding of the tdb. So you can correctly view the tdb with: net printing dump encoding=CP1252 /path/to/ntprinters.tdb or migrate it with e.g.: net printing migrate encoding=CP1252 /path/to/ntprinters.tdb If you migrate printers we suggest you do it in the following order. ntforms.tdb ntdrivers.tdb ntprinting.tdb Don't forget to rename, move or delete these files in /var/lib/samba after the migration.
