Hallo !

Can someone answer the following questions?


regards Joerg

- Mission
  - the users are to be able to send a fax with smbprint or IPP
  - the users cannot connect to faxserver directly
  - authentication is made by ldap
  - accounting write to SQL-DB (postgres)

System          Service         From            To              Software
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Laptop          IPP             Laptop          CupsServer      lpr (another Test-SW???)
CupsServer      IPP             Laptop          CupsServer      cups,-fax4cups
FaxServer       cups2cups       CupsServer      FaxServer       cups,+fax4cups??
CupsServer      Auth            CupsServer      ldap            pam,pamldap
CupsServer      Acct            CupsServer      acct            pam,???

- understand this table:
  - to send a fax-job from CupsServer to FaxServer with cups:
    - on FaxServer must be install: cups and fax4cups.


- Questions
  - Which SW needed on FaxServer?
  - Which SW needed on CupsServer?
  - Which SW needed on Laptop to send a IPP-Job?
  - Like to Accounting to SQl-Server?
  - On which servers must be installed fax4cups?
  - other suggestions....?
