ef416fc2 | 33 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
bd7854cb | 34 | \fIlppasswd\fR adds, changes, or deletes passwords in the CUPS |
35 | digest password file, \fIpasswd.md5\fR. When run by a normal | |
36 | user, \fIlppasswd\fR will prompt for the old and new passwords. | |
37 | When run by the super-user, \fIlppasswd\fR can add new accounts | |
38 | (\fI-a username\fR), change existing accounts (\fIusername\fR), | |
39 | or delete accounts (\fI-x username\fR) in the digest password | |
40 | file. Digest usernames do not have to match local UNIX usernames. | |
41 | .SH OPTIONS | |
42 | \fIlppasswd\fR supports the following options: | |
43 | .TP 5 | |
44 | -g groupname | |
45 | .br | |
46 | Specifies a group other than the default system group. | |
ef416fc2 | 47 | .SH SECURITY ISSUES |
568fa3fa MS |
48 | By default, the \fIlppasswd\fR program is not installed to allow ordinary |
49 | users to change their passwords. To enable this, the \fIlppasswd\fR command | |
50 | must be made setuid to root with the command: | |
51 | .br | |
52 | .nf | |
53 | chmod u+s lppasswd | |
54 | .fi | |
55 | .PP | |
56 | While every attempt has been made to make \fIlppasswd\fR secure against | |
57 | exploits that could grant super-user privileges to unprivileged users, | |
58 | paranoid system administrators may wish to use Basic authentication with | |
59 | accounts managed by PAM instead. | |
