16.SH DESCRIPTION
e0660879
MS
17The
18.I cupsd.conf
19file configures the CUPS scheduler,
20.BR cupsd (8).
2909c66c
MS
21It is normally located in the
22.I /etc/cups
25d0c3fe
MS
23directory.
24\fBNote:\fR File, directory, and user configuration directives that used to be allowed in the \fBcupsd.conf\fR file are now stored in the
25.BR cups-files.conf (5)
26file instead in order to prevent certain types of privilege escalation attacks.
ef416fc2 27.LP
25d0c3fe
MS
28Each line in the file can be a configuration directive, a blank line, or a comment.
29Configuration directives typically consist of a name and zero or more values separated by whitespace.
30The configuration directive name and values are case-insensitive.
31Comment lines start with the # character.
32.SS TOP-LEVEL DIRECTIVES
33The following top-level directives are understood by
34.BR cupsd (8):
37d9646b 35.\"#AccessLogLevel

49d87452 111.TP 5
25d0c3fe 112\fBDefaultPaperSize None\fR
49d87452 113.TP 5
25d0c3fe
MS
114\fBDefaultPaperSize \fIsizename\fR

053939b3
MS
143\fBErrorPolicy abort-job\fR

145.TP 5
146\fBErrorPolicy retry-job\fR
147Specifies that a failed print job should be retried at a later time unless otherwise specified for the printer.
148.TP 5
149\fBErrorPolicy retry-this-job\fR
150Specifies that a failed print job should be retried immediately unless otherwise specified for the printer.
151.TP 5
152\fBErrorPolicy stop-printer\fR

37d9646b 154.\"#FilterLimit
053939b3 155.TP 5
25d0c3fe
MS
156\fBFilterLimit \fIlimit\fR
157Specifies the maximum cost of filters that are run concurrently, which can be used to minimize disk, memory, and CPU resource problems.
158A limit of 0 disables filter limiting.
159An average print to a non-PostScript printer needs a filter limit of about 200.
160A PostScript printer needs about half that (100).
161Setting the limit below these thresholds will effectively limit the scheduler to printing a single job at any time.
162The default limit is "0".
37d9646b 163.\"#FilterNice
25d0c3fe
MS
164.TP 5

179.TP 5
180\fBHostNameLookups Off\fR
181.TP 5
182\fBHostNameLookups Double\fR
183Specifies whether to do reverse lookups on connecting clients.
184The "Double" setting causes
185.BR cupsd (8)
186to verify that the hostname resolved from the address matches one of the addresses returned for that hostname.
187Double lookups also prevent clients with unregistered addresses from connecting to your server.
188The default is "Off" to avoid the potential server performance problems with hostname lookups.
189Only set this option to "On" or "Double" if absolutely required.

204.TP 5
205\fBJobRetryInterval \fIseconds\fR
206Specifies the interval between retries of jobs in seconds.
207This is typically used for fax queues but can also be used with normal print queues whose error policy is "retry-job" or "retry-current-job".
208The default is "30".
37d9646b 209.\"#JobRetryLimit
3d052e43 210.TP 5
25d0c3fe
MS
211\fBJobRetryLimit \fIcount\fR

252Listens to the specified address and port or domain socket path for connections.
253Multiple Listen directives can be provided to listen on multiple addresses.
254The Listen directive is similar to the Port directive but allows you to restrict access to specific interfaces or networks.
37d9646b 255.\"#ListenBackLog
80ca4592 256.TP 5
25d0c3fe
MS
257\fBListenBackLog \fInumber\fR
258Specifies the number of pending connections that will be allowed.
259This normally only affects very busy servers that have reached the MaxClients limit, but can also be triggered by large numbers of simultaneous connections.

403\fBServerAlias *\fR
404The ServerAlias directive is used for HTTP Host header validation when clients connect to the scheduler from external interfaces.
405Using the special name "*" can expose your system to known browser-based DNS rebinding attacks, even when accessing sites through a firewall.
406If the auto-discovery of alternate names does not work, we recommend listing each alternate name with a ServerAlias directive instead of using "*".
