Hey Group;
As a long time Unix person I have run into one thing that I can't figure out. Why is Yast2, when setting up cups it resuses to leave the permissions on /etc/cups/files as lp.lp and insists on changing them to root.lp after I set them as SuSE does lp.lp. Problem seem to be coming from Yast2 near the end of the process when it is going to write the configured data. Up pops an error message. Which causes it not to write the default printer info. I have the cups-user and group set to lp for ./configure.
It looks like yast2 is the cause.
You can set file permissions explicitly in /etc/permissions.local Theo -- Theo v.
