Dear list,
I have set up a CUPS server to support kerberos authentication for
both printing and web interface. However, I would still like to have a
fallback (basic/password) authentication method for the following use
cases:
* user authentication from non-kerberized clients
* authentication for administration tasks (users in the @SYSTEM group
have to authenticate to the local password database of the server).
Is there any way to configure CUPS in a way to prefer kerberos, but
offer basic authentication if the former fails?
Best regards,
Volkmar
