I was just making sure I could kill a job gone wild without having to become root on a rootless system to do it.

There might be a good reason > for the presence of group gene but I cannot think of one. Root was inherited from a previous config, and gene is the operative that lets me do admin stuff. It is my machine. :) Thats also why I appended the network/security part of my msg.

The dnssd showed up sometime after I'd set the printer up at a local ethernet address, I didn't make a conscious effort to add it.

Excellent. If and when I ever get to Jessie. I am somewhat constrained by at least keeping the sim modes of LinuxCNC working here. > [Many lines irrelevant to the topic snipped] Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
