Linux cups server and printing using Kerberos tickets
This post is over 5 years old, it may be out of date.
To print from
Linux
to a budgetted printer you had to type your account password for every
print job. Sometimes this was problematic if the application was not
started from a terminal window. Now there is a
CUPS-server drukwerk.science.ru.nl which
demands a valid Kerberos ticket, so you do
not need to type your password for every print job. Managed Linux PCs
running Fedora 8 and above already use this CUPS-server. A Kerberos
ticket granting ticket can be obtained by typing kinit.
We will try to extend this CUPS-server in such a way it can be used for Windows IPP-printing.
