Hi there, I am deploying a printer Via MCX which works fine. however the machines are using an LDAP kerberos authentication setup. If i manually set kerberos on the machine using the following steps it works fine.
The problem i have is I can't do this on each machine manually.
This setting is not held in the PPD for that printer. I have set the option, copied the PPD from /etc/cups/ppd and then created a new printer using this PPD but the option is not enabled.
I can see that when you enable this option it is writing to and then deleting the following files
/var/spool/cups/cache/printername.png /var/spool/cups/cache/printername.data.N
/var/spool/cups/cache/printername.png-psHg
/var/spool/cups/cache/printername.data
I am sure this is what is setting the option but i can't see anything in lpadmin or lpoptions that would allow this to be set via the command line.
Any Ideas?
Code:
Open "http://localhost:631/printers" in Safari.
For each printer you wish to share using Kerberos:
Click the printer name in the list.
Choose "Set Default Options" from the "Administration" pop-up menu.
Click "Policies".
Choose "Kerberos" from the "Operation Policy:" pop-up menu.
Click "Set Default Options".The problem i have is I can't do this on each machine manually.
