I'm a bit confused here... I used dselect to install CUPS and it's dependent packages, but no config program, which seemed odd. I used links to browse the documentation in /usr/share/doc/cupsys/README.Debian. It said that cups was almost setup, but due to a bug in adduser, it hadn't added root to the necessary group lpadmin yet, and I had to do it manually. I checked the manpage for adduser, and it says that when adduser is called w/ two non-option parameters, it will try to add the first paramater (username) to the second (group name). So I tried the following:
ishamael:/# adduser root lpadmin adduser: The user `root' doesn't exist. ishamael:/# Now it seems odd that 'root' doesn't exist, especially since I'm trying to do this as root!! Any suggestions are very welcome TIA, Monte _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
