| 25 | .SH NAME |
| 26 | lppasswd \- add, change, or delete digest passwords. |
| 27 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
| 28 | .B lppasswd |
| 29 | [ -a ] [ -g |
| 30 | .I groupname |
| 31 | ] [ -x ] [ |
| 32 | .I username |
| 33 | ] |
| 34 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 35 | \fIlppasswd\fR adds, changes, or deletes passwords in the CUPS digest |
| 36 | password file, \fIpasswd.md5\fR. When run by a normal user, \fIlppasswd\fR |
| 37 | will prompt for the old and new passwords. When run by the super-user, |
| 38 | \fIlppasswd\fR can add new accounts (\fI-a username\fR), change existing |
| 39 | accounts (\fIusername\fR), or delete accounts (\fI-x username\fR) in the |
| 40 | digest password file. Digest usernames do not have to match local UNIX |
| 41 | usernames, but only UNIX usernames are supported by the CUPS client programs |
| 42 | (\fIlp(1)\fR, \fIlpr(1)\fR, etc.) |
| 43 | .LP |
| 44 | The \fI-g\fR option specifies a group other than the system group - "sys", |
| 45 | "system", or "root", depending on the operating system. |
| 46 | .SH SECURITY ISSUES |
| 47 | The \fIlppasswd\fR command is installed setuid to root. While every attempt |
| 48 | has been made to make it secure against exploits that could grant super-user |
| 49 | priviledges to unpriviledged users, paranoid system administrators may wish |
| 50 | to disable or change the ownership of the program to an unpriviledged |
| 51 | account. |
