Luggers; I have a cups printer defined and the interface module (a bash shell script) cats the supplied filename and pipes it to "tee" where one side of it is written to a file for subsequent extraction by other processes. It appears that the files created are owned by user 'lp' of group 'sys' but the permissions are created as 0600 (rw-------). As a result, no one but the root user can have access to these files, not even the creator (lp) because lp has no login capability. Is there a simple way to gain access to these files from another script? My initial thought was to change the umask to alter the creation permissions to 660 (rw-rw----) and I inserted a umask=0110 in the interface script which didn't change anything. So, cups guru's, please respond? What can I do to alter these permissions upon creation to allow group access? I've looked through the cups faqs and docs and the various linux print docs I have and see nothing. Anyone???
