Hi,
Okay, after playing around a little bit for a while i still gotta come and ask here. I got my printer setup on my suse 10.1 server system and i can print just fine with my Suse 10.2 client but not with the Windows client(s). In Windows i can browse for the printer and it shows it up nicely. Double click tells me that it'll download the driver to the system but then it still can't find it and i will need to install it manually. Anyways, once done this, i can nicely add it to my windows printer(s) but when i try to print something it tells me "Access denied, unable to connect". I'm not reallly sure what's wrong since i can print from my suse 10.2 client just fine. Can anyone help me? This would be appreciated! Thanks tons!
Ron,
I don't know if my original post got through, if so I apologize, but in addition to the above make sure you see "man lppasswd" and make sure the windows user and password have an entry in lppasswd because windows tries to auth by sending the windows login and password.
Really? Can't i just open it up for the whole network with no authentication? Does every Windows user need to be added? I tried: lppasswd -a 'Ron Eggler' and got this: server:~ # lppasswd -a 'Ron Eggler' Enter password: {no password so i hit [enter]} Enter password again: {[enter] again} lppasswd: Sorry, password rejected. Your password must be at least 6 characters long, cannot contain your username, and must contain at least one letter and number. server:~ #
So does it require a Windows password? Hmm weird, there must be a possibility to just open it up somehow i think, no?
Ron
There is and that is/should be the default! See /etc/cups/cups.conf:
<Location /printers/name> # # You may wish to limit access to printers and classes, either with Allow # and Deny lines, or by requiring a username and password. #
## Anonymous access (default) AuthType None
## Require a username and password (Basic authentication) #AuthType Basic #AuthClass User
## Require a username and password (Digest/MD5 authentication) #AuthType Digest #AuthClass User
## Restrict access to local domain #Order Deny,Allow #Deny From All #Allow From .mydomain.com </Location>
confirm sbove section, looks similar on my system
<Location /admin> # # You definitely will want to limit access to the administration functions. # The default configuration requires a local connection from a user who # is a member of the system group to do any admin tasks. You can change # the group name using the SystemGroup directive. #
AuthType BasicDigest
Ah here I have AuthType Basic. Try adding Digest
AuthClass Group AuthGroupName sys
## Restrict access to local domain Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 127.0.0.1 I allow from 192.168.0.* (so I can control it from he whole subnet) Allow From @LOCAL Allow From 66.76.63.60 Don't have above two lines
Encryption Required </Location>
Okay, changed above line by adding digest, restarted cups but in Windows it still says "Access denied, unable to connect" isn't this weird? :o
P.S. How did the intel video 1680x1050 problem come out???
Oh, didn't get it working, i'm still on 1280x1024 but i've purchsed a GeForce 7300 card on ebay which is stuck in a PostOffice in NewYork :( ... No idea how long it would take till it gets here... Thanks for any further help to get the printer issue sorted out.
