--------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Re #1018, you can kind of do this with sudo lpr -Usomeone -Pajax. You need
to do this as root because LPR dates from the days when every machine on
the network was trusted and we all ran NFS. In our environment we no
longer trust that.
LPRng has an allow_user_setting variable, but it seems like there's no way
to set this to "everyone". We should see if there is or send them a patch.
Of course, this is all using LPR directly to the Pharos server, and not
via CUPS, so it probably won't work anyway.
