Stupid question: How do you tell CUPS to populate from a central
CUPS server?
I have tried looking on the web, but am totally prepared to take a
RTFMP if someone could point me at the right man page.... ;-)

We use cups from opencsw/blastwave here.
We actually have a central cups server setup and that is setup
with all of it's printers shared.
Then on our sunray servers we also have cups installed and it's set
to see printers shared by other servers.
So the cups on our sunray servers automatically populate with the
printers from our central cups server.
We've had this setup for about 6 months now and it's worked really
well for us.
And I can confirm this works with firefox3 and this new version of
acroread.
We didn't use to have a central cups server. Only reason we do now
is because it's annoying to figure out which sunray server a user
having a printing issue is logged into so you can figure out which
cups server to login to. Not to mention if you changed a printer on
one of the sunray cups servers, then you had to repeat for all your
sunray cups servers. Also if we want to work on a printer, then we
can unpublish it on the central cups server and it won't appear in
the cups on any of the sunray servers anymore. Keeps people from
printing to a printer you're trying to work on.

The printing support is for cups, and Sun dropped cups from the
companion CD for the 10_08 release. Acroread will print without
cups,
but there's no menu selection of printers. If I recall correctly,
the
story may be similar for firefox 3 contributed by Sun.
Perhaps it's time to switch to cups, but I suspect I'll point
acroread
to an existing cups server. (In very limited testing, the cups
material
on our system from 2005 works with 10_08.) What's the smart
solution?
