      Location</a></h1>

      <p>Options used:</p>

      <ul>
        <li>
          <p><tt class="LITERAL">perms_path=</tt> <i class=
          "EMPHASIS">path</i></p>
        </li>
      </ul>
      <br>
      <br>

      <p>The <tt class="LITERAL">perms_path=</tt> configuration
      variable specifies the location of the default permissions
      file. The default value is:</p>

      <div class="INFORMALEXAMPLE">
        <a name="AEN8778"></a>
<pre class="SCREEN">
    perms_path=${sysconfdir}/lpd.perms
</pre>
      </div>
      <br>
      <br>

      <p>The <tt class="FILENAME">lpd.perms</tt> file can be
      obtained by running a program, in a similar manner to the <tt
      class="FILENAME">printcap</tt> file. See <a href=
      "filters.htm">Filters</a> for details on how the program
      would be invoked. For example, assume the configuration
      information specified:</p>

      <div class="INFORMALEXAMPLE">
        <a name="AEN8784"></a>
<pre class="SCREEN">
    perms_path=|/usr/local/libexec/get_perms
</pre>
      </div>
      <br>
      <br>

      <p>The <b class="APPLICATION">lpd</b> server will write
      either a blank line for connection (<tt class=
      "LITERAL">SERVICE=X</tt>) and global <b class=
      "APPLICATION">lpc</b> permissions (<tt class=
      "LITERAL">SERVICE=C</tt> and <tt class=
      "LITERAL">LPC=reread,lpd,default</tt>) or the name of the
      spool queue to the <tt class="LITERAL">get_perms</tt> <span
      class="ACRONYM">STDIN</span>, and expects to read permission
      information from its <span class="ACRONYM">STDOUT</span>. If
      the filter method is used, it should always return the
      complete set of connection (<tt class="LITERAL">X</tt>) and
      control (<tt class="LITERAL">C</tt> service values.</p>
