Re: [gentoo-user] Password based printing

You'll get better responce if you *start* a thread rather than burying 
your request in another thread which some people are already squelching.
It is also impolite, and manners do count.
Lastly, it makes your message easier to find & recognize.

Hi list,
I need to build a printserver inside my gentoo box.
This printserver will serve about 50
printers for about 500 users.  I need to restrict
access to the colored printers with authenticated
users with their usename and password (posibly from
the ldap server which is already running on a separate
machine).
Any idea guys?  Im looking at the cups-pam-ldap
solution, that is cups will use pam authentication and
pam will use ldap modules.  My problem is how to
convince cups to use pam authentication for some
printers. In the cups documentation, there is no
information regarding implementation of pam.
When I build cups from source ./configure --help
shows that pam is enabled by default.
Pam-ldap is already working.
TIA
