Description Enrico Scholz 2022-08-03 17:18:18 UTC
Description of problem:

With shipped version, I am asked everytime for a password when I try to print:

| $ lpr
| Password for ensc on louvre.....?


Fedora 35 (cups-2.3.3op2-17) used my krb5 login credentials without this prompt.

Remote side is RHEL8 with cups-2.2.6.


It seems that cups must be explicitly built with `--enable-gssapi` to enable gssapi support.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

cups-2.4.2-1.fc36.x86_64


How reproducible:

100%

Hi Enrico,

thank you for reporting the issue!

To be honest, you're the first person I see to use clean CUPS+Kerberos (without Samba), not even our RHEL support engineers and SUSE support engineers, who work on CUPS for about a decade, haven't seen such users in support cases :) .

I'll reenable the support in CUPS, however the support will be removed with CUPS 3.0 and you will need a printer application, which will implement Kerberos support.
