Package: cupsys Version: 1.2.7-4.1 Severity: important Tags: patch
Hi, I have been deploying a etch-based cupsys server for my lab and have noticed the following bug : create a new policy in cupsd.conf (using the provided cupsd.conf file) restart cupsys apply that policy to a specific printer (lpadmin -p printer -o printer-op-policy=the_policy, or through the web based interface) test it, it works (my test case was to reject a specific IP adress client) restart cups, the policy _appears_ as applied (web interface, printer settings and such) but it not really applied (so for example, my unauthorized client can print through) reapply manually the policy, it works again (client cannot print) check printers.conf, the OpPolicy line is correct this lead me to the conclusion that the policy was saved correctly but not restored correctly on startup after investigating quite a bit, I have produced a patch that I believe fixes that behavior. At least "it works for me" (tm). It seems the printer op-policy argument is correctly set, but there is also a op-policy-ptr which was not updated when loading printers. Updating that pointer as well when loading printers from printers.conf made it work here. Note that it might not be the correct fix, this might need input from cupsys developers. Untested : are other policys (error-policy/classes policies etc) correctly loaded and applied on startup, my patch does nothing regarding that ...
