Hello,
Dare to do a slightly updated repost.
I use cups 1.7.3 on arch linux. My local username is florian and
printers are successfully discovered using cups-browsed and avahi. My
username that is permitted to print is lindnefn. User in client.conf is
set.
florian at asaru ~ % cat /etc/cups/client.conf
# see 'man client.conf'
ServerName /var/run/cups/cups.sock # alternative: ServerName
hostname-or-ip-address[:port] of a remote server
User lindnefn
florian at asaru ~ % cat ~/.cups/client.conf
User lindnefn
If I go the cups webinterface on localhost it displays florian as user
name on the queue. My print jobs are permission denied from the remote
cups server. Printing on non restricted printers works.
What could be wrong here?
Thanks,
Florian
