I'm having trouble using the USER, REMOTEUSER, GROUP, and REMOTEGROUP options in lprng 3.4.2-5. I want to only allow a certain user or group to have access to the printer.
For example, if I use: (/etc/lpd.perms) DEFAULT REJECT ACCEPT SERVICE=X HOST=localhost IP=127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 ACCEPT SERVICE=X 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0 ACCEPT SERVICE=Q <------------------- lpq works for all users ACCEPT SERVICE=Q USER=paul <--------- lpq doesn't work for any users ACCEPT SERVICE=Q REMOTEUSER=paul <--- lpq doesn't work for any users ACCEPT SERVICE=C <------------------- lpc works for all users ACCEPT SERVICE=C USER=paul <--------- lpc only works for paul ACCEPT SERVICE=C REMOTEUSER=paul <--- lpc only works for paul Same results for GROUP and REMOTEGROUP. I executed lpq from the console, logging in as paul. When I tested other users, I used root and lp. Can anyone explain these odd results? --- Paul Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Public PGP key at http://paul.3dillusion.com/pgpkey.txt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
