Hello,
I'm using CUPS 1.2.4. I'm trying to configure it such that certain printers can only be printed to be certain machines (for use in a lab environment). It would be nice if other operations were still permitted as normal, although thats not absolutely required.
I have the following lines in cupsd.conf:
HostNameLookups On
<Policy glennan312>
# <Limit Send-Document Send-URI Print-Job Create-Job>
<Limit All>
Order allow,deny
Allow from g312-01.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-02.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-03.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-04.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-05.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-06.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-07.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-08.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-09.cwru.edu
Allow from g312-10.cwru.edu
Deny from All
</Limit>
</Policy>
I then configured printer glennan312 to use op-policy glennan312 instead of default. I've also tried both Limit lines individually.
Then from a machine other than those listed on the Allow lines, printing still succeeds. Is there another method I should be using to achieve the same thing?
The point of this is to limit printing to certain computers which are definitely using Active Directory, so that I can be certain their usernames are legitimate for quota purposes.
