I'm trying to setup CUPS (in a jail) using a USB printer on
my host machine. My host was built with as a minimal FreeBSD 7.2-Release
install. I added ezjail and created two jails. Both jails are working and I
can login to both using ssh.
I'm trying to build one of the jails as a print server. I added the following
to it:
cups-1.3.10_1
hpijs-2.1.4_3
libijs-0.35_1
foomatic-db-20090530
foomatic-filters-4.0.1_2
On the host i did the following:
I added this to /etc/devfs.conf
own ultp0 root:cups
perm ultp0 0660
I added this to /etc/devfs.rules
# Printers
add path ltp[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
add path ultp[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
add path unltp[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
[devfsrules_jail_PrintServer=10]
add path ltp[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
add path ultp[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
add path unltp[0-9]* mode 0660 group cups
I added cups:*:193:root,<user> to /etc/group
After a reboot, I can access the administration website.
I added a printer and allowed remote access.
From administration page - printer status:
Description: HP Photosmart 7350
Location: Home
Printer Driver: HP PhotoSmart 7350 Foomatic/hpijs (recommended)
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: usb:/dev/ulpt0
Wen printing a test page from administration page i get permission denied.
HPPhotosmart7350 (Default Printer) "Unable to open device file "/dev/ulpt0":
Permission denied"
How do i solve this?
Please let me know if more information is needed.
I thank you for your time and help in advance.
