(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hello, I have questions about cupsd.conf
- where are the log files and how to set them up ?
- What is DataDir value ?
- Can group be lp ?
- What can be systemgroup ?
- Where are ssl and encryptions setup and are they needed or used ?
- How is tmp setup ?
Thanks.

In the folder /var/log/cups. This was picked by CUPS at compile time.

- What is DataDir value ?

What do you mean?

- Can group be lp ?- What can be systemgroup ?

CUPS is designed for multi-user systems with administrators, printer managers and regular users. But Puppy doesn't work that way, so some features in cupsd.conf are irrelevant.

- Where are ssl and encryptions setup and are they needed or used ?

Read here.

- How is tmp setup ?

A print job flows through CUPS using pipes. However, some printer drivers use /tmp.
