FTP from AIX to 20 Windows clients
I have got a unix server ( AIX ) and 20 clients ( windows 2000 ) . I have to transfer a file through FTP from the server to each of 20 clients daily to check the network speed.
But each time I do ftp, I have to enter username and password and then transfer the file using "put <filename>". I have to do this for 20 machines which is a tedious process.
I want to avoid typing username and password and also typing command (may be by writing a script ) . But all the clients are windows 2000 machines.
Please suggest me a solution.
thanks after solution,
sharath

cupsaddsmb(8) Apple Inc. cupsaddsmb(8)
NAME
cupsaddsmb - export printers to samba for windows clients
SYNOPSIS
cupsaddsmb [ -H samba-server ] [ -U samba-user[%samba-password] ] [ -h cups-server[:port] ] [ -v ] -a
cupsaddsmb [ -H samba-server ] [ -U samba-user[%samba-password] ] [ -h cups-server[:port] ] [ -v ] printer [ ... printer ]
DESCRIPTION
cupsaddsmb exports printers to the SAMBA software (version 2.2.0 or higher) for use with Windows clients. Depending on the SAMBA configura-
tion, you may need to provide a password to export the printers. This program requires the Windows printer driver files described below.
OPTIONS
cupsaddsmb supports the following options:
-H samba-server
Specifies the SAMBA server which defaults to the CUPS server.
-U samba-user[%samba-password]
Specifies the SAMBA print admin username which defaults to your current username. If the username contains a percent (%) character,
then the text following the percent is treated as the SAMBA password to use.
-a
Exports all known printers. Otherwise only the named printers are exported.
-h cups-server[:port]
Specifies a different CUPS server to use.
-v
Specifies that verbose information should be shown. This is useful for debugging SAMBA configuration problems.
SAMBA CONFIGURATION
cupsaddsmb uses the new RPC-based printing support in SAMBA 2.2.x to provide printer drivers and PPD files to Windows client machines. In
order to use this functionality, you must first configure the SAMBA smb.conf(5) file to support printing through CUPS and provide a printer
driver download share, as follows:
[global]
load printers = yes
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /etc/samba/drivers
browseable = yes
guest ok = no
read only = yes
write list = root
This configuration assumes a FHS-compliant installation of SAMBA; adjust the [printers] and [print$] share paths accordingly on your system
as needed.
MICROSOFT POSTSCRIPT DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS
The base driver for Windows 2000 and higher is the Microsoft PostScript driver, which is available on any system running Windows 2000 or
higher in the %WINDIR%SYSTEM32SPOOLDRIVERSW32X863 folder for 32-bit drivers and %WINDIR%SYSTEM32SPOOLDRIVERSX643 folder for
64-bit drivers.
However, currently only Windows 2000 and higher is supported by the Microsoft driver, so you will also need to get the Adobe driver to sup-
port Windows 95, 98, and Me clients. The Adobe and Microsoft drivers for Windows 2000 are identical.
Once you have extracted the driver files, copy the 32-bit drivers to the /usr/share/cups/drivers directory and the 64-bit drivers to the
/usr/share/cups/drivers/x64 directory exactly as named below:
[Windows 2000 and higher]
ps5ui.dll
pscript.hlp
pscript.ntf
pscript5.dll
Note: Unlike Windows, case is significant - make sure that you use the lowercase filenames shown above, otherwise cupsaddsmb will fail to
export the drivers.
ADOBE POSTSCRIPT DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS 95, 98, AND ME
cupsaddsmb can use the Adobe PostScript printer driver for Windows 95, 98, and ME, which are available for download from the Adobe web site
(http://www.adobe.com).
The Adobe driver does not support the page-label, job-billing, or job-hold-until options.
Once you have installed the driver on a Windows system, copy the following files to the /usr/share/cups/drivers directory exactly as named
below:
[Windows 95, 98, and Me]
ADFONTS.MFM
ADOBEPS4.DRV
ADOBEPS4.HLP
ICONLIB.DLL
PSMON.DLL
Note: Unlike Windows, case is significant - make sure that you use the UPPERCASE filenames shown above, otherwise cupsaddsmb will fail to
export the drivers.
KNOWN ISSUES
Getting the full set of Windows driver files should be easier.
