[CentOS] print job gui for remote access
Users on Machine A with rights to log into and run jobs on Machine B using ssh want to be able to view and cancel print jobs on Machine B. This is easily accomplished via the commandline with lpq and lprm, but is there a GUI that I can give them? I have them running things like scribus using launchers like "ssh -X machineb scribus" and would like to provide similar functionality for the printer job control. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER! ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

While that would work, I can imagine my phone ringing with questions about why someone's printer disappeared. I'm really just trying to front-end lpq and lprm. If I have to I'll write something to do this since it's not a complicated thing and it's an excuse to play with gtk, but I don't want to re-invent the wheel. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER! ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
