Question is how easy it is to fake this. Windows most likely embedds this information in the Postscript that the Xerox then parses. From a UNIX machine with LPRng access you could easily fool this kind of system and put any user in the Postscript file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.
