LP Administrators group

AMI_5 — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 02:58:40 GMT

Hi @all,

I want to create a user with permision to create, add and delete printers on our hp-ux 11.11 system only. Unfortunately, adding the user to the lp group didn't work. I still get following error for the user:
"/usr/lib/lpshut: this command for use only by LP Administrators"

Which other group(s), except lp, must the user be added to to become a LP Administrator?

Best Regards,

AMI

Hi,

- it may be, that this user must change to the lp group first when logged in:
newgrp lp
check via command: id

- you may use restricted SAM for this purpose

restricted sam did the work.

Thanks
