Very strange..... as it turns out the machine we started
working on in fact lists AuthenticationAUthority as ;basic,
but we still have no success. I am still concerned that cups
is not reading the proper files. The Mac docs indicate that
the OS no longer relies on /etc/password and /etc/groups.
Where does cups look for user and group info and is that the
same place the gui maintains it? We manage the hosts via
ladmin, but that does not seem to in the system group (in fact
I have my doubts as to whether cupsd.conf even identifies the
correct System group. Is there a Mac OS X specific howto
somwhere about how to configure SyetemGroup etc so that sups
correctly reads users and groups.
