- my ten cents.... - create a CUPS admin, use (as root) " lppasswd -a -g sys root " - check the syntax of lppasswd with "man lppasswd" before you go ahead, I'm not sure I remember that one correctly. Then open your browser, goto http://localhost:631 and select printers. See if it's red or green and take appropriate action. - hope this helps. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
