CUPS configuration
Hi,
I'm running SuSE 9.2 Pro and have been setting up printers using Yast2. I've tried to setup CUPS to manage the printing, but I don't seem to be making any progress because the system asks for a user Login. I have never entered a login and password for print setup and so I'm stuck.
Any assistance on how to get around this is welcome.
okupion.
RE: CUPS configuration
Enter your superuser (root) login and password.
Thanks wysota. I tried that earlier, but it didn't work.
try lmpasswd to set a user account and passwd that cups understands.
man lmpasswd
cups passwd
Also, ensure that cupsd will accept a passwd
in your cupsd.conf file, set your AuthType for Admin to BasicDigest
<Location /admin>
AuthType BasicDigest
AuthClass Group
AuthGroupName sys
