From: bribbeck@exucom.com (Bob Ribbeck) Subject: Has anyone been able to use lpr as non-root Date: 11 Feb 1993 01:28:41 GMT
I've been able to use lpr,lpq.etc as root but can't get it to work for
non-root users. It says it can't rename the tf****** to cf***********
If the deamon created the file why can't it rename it ???? Then to make
matters worse it won't let the non-root user lprm the files. Even if
spool/lp0 has 777 permission ???? Is this a bug or what? Does the lp0
need to be in the path??? Mail etc. doesn't require path access to work.
Has anyone really made lpr,lp,lpq,lprm work correctly?? any help would
be welcomed by all of us trying to setup linux for a small invironment.
