1# PyKota sample configuration file
2#
3#
4# File format :
5#
6#   - A mandatory [global] section :
7#
8#     Contains configuration directives which apply for all printers.
9#     Some directives MUST be set in the [global] section, e.g.
10#     database related directives.
11#
12#   - Any number of optional [PrintQueueName] sections :
13#
14#     Contain directives which apply for a particular print queue only.
15#
16#     Override the values of the same directives present in [global].
17#
18#
19# Directives format :
20#
21#   - Directive's name, followed by ':' followed by the directive's value.
22#
23#   - No leading whitespace : leading whitespace tell the parser that the
24#     current directive is the continuation of the previous one. Use with
25#     care and only when you need it.

102# TLS support for LDAP
103#
104# ldaptls can be set to either Yes or No

140# How to create new accounts and groups
141# authorized values are "below" and "attach(objectclass name [, fail|warn])"
142#
143# "below" creates the new accounts/groups as standalone entries
144# below the above defined 'userbase' ou
145#
146# attach(objectclass name [, action]) tries to find some existing user/group
147# using the above defined 'userrdn' or 'grouprdn' and 'userbase'
148# 'groupbase', and attach the PyKota specific entries to it.
149# if action is "warn" and no entry exists to attach to, a new
150# entry is created, and a message is logged.
151# if action is "fail" and no entry exists to attach to, program
152# logs an error message and aborts.
153# if action is not set, the default value is "fail".
154#
155# a possible value:  newuser: attach(posixAccount, warn)
156#newuser : below
157#newgroup : below
158#
159# LDAP attribute which stores the user's email address
160#usermail : mail
161
162#
163# Choose what attribute contains the list of group members
164# common values are : memberUid, uniqueMember, member
165#groupmembers: memberUid
166
167# Activate low-level LDAP cache yes/no
168# Nothing to do with "storagecaching" which is higher level
169# and database independant.
170# This saves some search queries and may help with heavily
171# loaded LDAP servers.
172# This is EXPERIMENTAL.
173#
174# BEWARE : SETTING THIS TO 'YES' CAUSES PROBLEMS FOR NOW
175# BETTER TO LET IT SET TO 'NO'
176# ldapcache: no
177
178#############################################################
179# ALL directives below are common to ALL storage backends   #
180#############################################################
181
182# Should the database caching mechanism be enabled or not ?
183# If unset, caching is disabled. Possible values Y/N/YES/NO
184# caching mechanism works with both PostgreSQL and OpenLDAP backends
185# but may be really interesting only with OpenLDAP.
186#
187# ACTIVATING CACHE MAY CAUSE PRECISION PROBLEMS IN PRINT ACCOUNTING
188# IF AN USER PRINTS ON SEVERAL PRINTERS AT THE SAME TIME.
189# YOU MAY FIND IT INTERESTING ANYWAY, ESPECIALLY FOR LDAP.
190#
191# FYI, I ALWAYS SET IT TO YES !
192#
193storagecaching: No
194
195# Should full job history be disabled ?
196# If unset or set to No, full job history is kept in the database.
197# This will be useful in the future when the report generator
198# will be written.
199# Disabling the job history can be useful with heavily loaded
200# LDAP servers, to not make the LDAP tree grow out of control.
201# Disabling the job history with the PostgreSQL backend works too
202# but it's probably less useful than with LDAP.
203disablehistory: No
204
205
206# Where to log ?
207# supported values : stderr, system (system means syslog, but don't use 'syslog' here)
208# if the value is not set then the default SYSTEM applies.
209logger: system
210
211# Enable debugging ? Put YES or NO there.
212# debug is set to YES in this sample configuration file, so debugging
213# is activated when configuring PyKota, which helps a lot. After all
214# works, just put NO instead to save some disk space in your logs.
215# NB : When set to YES, there is a very significant impact on performance
216# when managing many users, printers or billing codes at once, because
217# hundreds of thousands of log lines can be generated.
218# When printing a job, typically around 250-300 log lines are generated,
219# so the impact per job is really minimal. Note however that this will
220# add up over a large number of jobs.
221debug : Yes
222
223#
224# The URL to PyKota's logo when used from the CGI scripts.
225# You can use your own logo by modifying the URL below.
226# If not defined, the default URL is the same as the
227# one defined below
228logourl : http://www.librelogiciel.com/software/PyKota/pykota.png
229
230#
231# The destination to which the web browser will be redirected
232# when you click on the logo defined above.
233# If not defined, the default URL is the same as the
234# one defined below
235logolink : http://www.librelogiciel.com/software/
236
237#
238# Mail server to use to warn users
239# If the value is not set then localhost is used.
240smtpserver: localhost
241
242# Crash messages' recipient : in addition to the log files
243# each software crash can be sent to the author of PyKota
244# or any other person of your choice. By default this
245# is disabled. The recipient pykotacrashed@librelogiciel.com
246# reaches PyKota's author.
247# The 'adminmail' (defined a bit below) is CCed.
248#
249# Privacy concerns : what is sent is only :
250#
251#        - a copy of the software's traceback
252#        - a copy of the software's command line arguments
253#        - a copy of the software's environment variables
254#
255# suggested value
256# crashrecipient: pykotacrashed@librelogiciel.com
257
258# Email domain
259# If the value is not set, and the mail attribute for the user
260# is not set in the PyKota storage, be it LDAP (see usermail directive
261# above) or PostgreSQL, then email messages are sent to
262# username@smtpserver
263#
264# If the value is set, then email messages are sent to
265# username@maildomain using the SMTP server defined above
266#
267# Set the appropriate value below, example.com set as per RFC2606.
268maildomain: example.com
269
270# Should we force usernames to be all lowercase when printing ?
271# Default is No.
272# This is a global option only.
273# Some people reported that WinXP sends mixed case usernames
274# setting 'utolower: Yes' solves the problem.
275# Of course you have to use lowercase only when adding
276# users with edpykota, because ALL database accesses are
277# still case sensitive.
278#
279# If utolower is Yes, the usernames received from the printing
280# system is converted to lowercase at the start of printing,
281# BUT ONLY when printing.
282#
283# If utolower is No, which is the default, strict case checking
284# is done, this means that users 'Jerome' and 'jerome' are
285# different. Printer and groups names are ALWAYS case sensitive.
286utolower: No
287
288# Should we split usernames on a specific separator when printing ?
289# Default is No, i.e. if the value is unset.
290# This is a global option only.
291# This option adds support for Samba's Winbind utility, which
292# prefixes usernames with domain name and separator character.
293# Of course if you set this then you have to use NO separator when
294# adding users with edpykota.
295#
296# If winbind_separator is set, the usernames received from the printing
297# system are split on the separator's value, and only the last part
298# (real username) is used.
299#
300# If winbind_separator is not set, which is the default, strict
301# username equality checking will be done (modulo the setting
302# of the 'utolower' directive), this means that users 'DOMAIN1/jerome',
303# 'Domain2/jerome' and 'jerome' are different.
304# winbind_separator: /
305
306# When creating users or groups accounts, should we reject users
307# or groups which are unknown from the system ?
308# The default if unset is NO. This means that by default, you
309# can create users or groups for which `getent passwd username`
310# or `getent group groupname` returns nothing.
311#
312# Allowed values : Yes | No
313# Default value : No
314#
315# reject_unknown: No
316
317# Do we want to hide jobs' title, filename and options for privacy
318# reasons ?
319# This may be required in some countries (Italy comes to mind).
320# Allowed values are YES and NO.
321# If unset, the default value is NO, meaning that jobs' title, filename
322# and options will be saved into the history.
323# This option can't be set on a per printer basis, only into the
324# [global] section.
325privacy : no
326
327# When the real CUPS backend fail, should we modify the
328# user's page counters and account balance or not ?
329# If you trust your users, set it to "nocharge".
330# If you think they found some mean to kill the real CUPS backend,
331# then set it to "charge".
332# If unset, the default value is "nocharge", meaning that users won't be
333# charged whenever a CUPS backend fails. This is the OPPOSITE
334# behavior compared to PyKota versions prior to 1.24alpha2.
335# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
336# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
337# onbackenderror : charge
338onbackenderror : nocharge
339
340# Should we strip off some characters from the beginning of
341# print jobs' titles ? This can be used to remove smbprn.??????
342# which sometimes appear when printing in raw mode from Windows
343# through Samba.
344# This setting only applies at printing time.
345# When not set, titles are used as received from the printing system.
346# The default is to not strip any character off of jobs' titles.
347# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
348# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
349# striptitle : smbprn.??????
350
351# Should we launch a command to overwrite the job's ticket ?
352# This allows a command to overwrite the username and/or the
353# billing code used, or to deny or cancel the job.
354# If unset no command is launched and the job's username and
355# billing code are used as they are received.
356# To overwrite the job's ticket, the command has to print
357# on its standard output one or more of the following lines,
358# without any prefix or space character :
359#
360#    USERNAME=the_username_we_want_to_overwrite_with
361#    BILLINGCODE=the_billingcode_we_want_to_overwrite_with
362#    DENY
363#    CANCEL
364#
365# NB : the output is entirely read, and the latest value
366# seen is used, so you command can output several usernames
367# or billing codes and only the latest ones will be used.
368# If only USERNAME= lines are printed, the billing code,
369# if any, is used unchanged.
370# If only BILLINGCODE= lines are printed, the username is
371# used unchanged.
372# If DENY or CANCEL is output, but is followed by new USERNAME= or
373# BILLINGCODE= lines, the job is not denied nor cancelled.
374#
375# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
376# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
377#
378# overwrite_jobticket : /path/to/some/script/or/command
379
380# What should we do when we print and the billing code used is
381# not present in the database ?
382# The default value is 'create' which adds the billing code to the
383# database.
384# Other values can be :
385#       deny
386#     which silently rejects the job.
387# or :
388#       deny(your script here)
389#     if you put the path to a script or command here, it is executed, for
390#     example you can open a popup window explaining why the job was
391#     rejected.
392#
393# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
394# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
395#
396# unknown_billingcode : deny
397# unknown_billingcode : deny(/path/to/some/script)
398# unknown_billingcode : create
399
400# Where should we store our (temporary) files when printing ?
401# if unset, defaults to a system directory dedicated to temporary
402# files and evaluated at runtime (see Python's documentation
403# for the tempfile.gettempdir() function).
404# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
405# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
406# On my system, when not set, the /var/spool/cups/tmp directory is used.
407# directory : /tmp
408# directory : /var/spool/cups
409
410# Should we keep our work files on disk after printing ?
411# If unset, temporary files are deleted once the work is finished.
412# If set to yes, files are kept on disk in the 'directory'
413# named with the previous directive.
414# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
415# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
416# Default value is No, meaning temporary files are deleted
417# keepfiles : yes
418keepfiles : no
419
420
421# What is the accounting backend to use
422#
423# supported values :
424#
425#    - hardware : asks the printer for its lifetime page counter
426#                 via either SNMP, AppleTalk, or any external
427#                 command. This method is the recommended one
428#                 in PyKota since its beginning.
429#
430#                 In the lines below "%(printer)s" is automatically replaced
431#                 at run time with your printer's Fully Qualified Domain Name
432#                 for network printers, if PyKota can extract it from its
433#                 environment.
434#                 e.g. myprinter.example.com
435#
436#         Recommended values :
437#
438#             accounter: hardware(snmp)
439#
440#               Extracts the printer's internal page counter via SNMP.
441#
442#         Or :
443#
444#             accounter: hardware(pjl)
445#
446#               Extracts the printer's internal page counter via PJL queries over port tcp/9100.
447#
448#         Advanced uses :
449#
450#             accounter: hardware(snmp:MyCommunity)
451#
452#               To use a different SNMP community name than the default one (which is 'public')
453#
454#             accounter: hardware(pjl:9101)
455#
456#               To use a different port than the default one (which is 9100)
457#
458#
459#         Other Examples :
460#         
461#             accounter: hardware(/usr/bin/snmpget -v1 -c public -Ov %(printer)s mib-2.43.10.2.1.4.1.1 | cut -f 2,2 -d " ")
462#         
463#         Another untested example, using npadmin :
464#         
465#             accounter: hardware(/usr/bin/npadmin --pagecount %(printer)s)
466#         
467#         Another example, for AppleTalk printers which works fine :
468#         (You may need the pap CUPS backend installed, and copy the
469#         pagecount.ps file from untested/netatalk into /etc or any
470#         appropriate location)
471#         
472#             accounter: hardware(/usr/share/pykota/papwaitprinter.sh "MyPrinter:LaserWriter@*" && /usr/bin/pap -p "MyPrinter:LaserWriter@*" /usr/share/pykota/pagecount.ps  2>/dev/null | /bin/grep -v status | /bin/grep -v Connect | /usr/bin/tail -1)
473#         
474#         An example for parallel printers like the HP Laserjet 5MP :
475#         
476#             accounter: hardware(/bin/cat /usr/share/pykota/pagecount.pjl >/dev/lp0 && /usr/bin/head -2 </dev/lp0 | /usr/bin/tail -1)
477#         
478#         This value can be set either globally or per printer or both.
479#         If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
480#         
481#         Some examples and comments provided by Bob Martel from csuohio.edu
482#         
483#         For several printers I could not get the page count using snmpget.  I
484#         resorted to snmpwalk:
485#         
486#             accounter: hardware(/opt/local/net-snmp/bin/snmpwalk -v 1 -Cc -c public %(printer)s | grep mib-2.43.10.2.1.4.1.1 | cut -d " " -f4)
487#         
488#         The last example is still more ugly, some of the printers only provided
489#         their counters without names, but at least always on the same line:
490#         
491#             accounter: hardware(/opt/local/net-snmp/bin/snmpwalk -v 1 -Cc -c public -Ov %(printer)s | grep Counter32 | tail -2 | head -1 | cut -d " " -f2)
492#         
493#         An example using netcat and a preformatted PJL job which you can find
494#         in the untested/pjl directory, which is sent to a JetDirect print
495#         server on port 9100 :
496#         
497#             accounter: hardware(/bin/nc -w 2 %(printer)s 9100 </usr/share/pykota/pagecount.pjl | /usr/bin/tail -2)
498#         
499#         An example using the contributed pagecount.pl script which does
500#         the same as above, but should work on more printers :
501#         
502#             accounter: hardware(LC_ALL=C /usr/share/pykota/pagecount.pl %(printer)s 9100)
503#         
504#         NB : the LC_ALL=C is used because sometimes Perl can correctly set locale and is verbose
505#              about it, causing PyKota to miss the correct answer.
506#
507#         WARNING : In any case, when using an hardware accounter, please test the command line outside
508#                   of PyKota before. This will save you some headaches in case it doesn't work as expected.
509#         
510#         The waitprinter.sh is there to wait until the printer is idle again.
511#         This should prevent a job to be sent to the printer while another one is
512#         not yet finished (not all pages are printed, but the complete job is in
513#         the printer)
514#         
515#   YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO BE SURE YOU HAVE A SCRIPT WHICH WAITS FOR THE
516#   PRINTER BEING READY BEFORE ASKING FOR ITS INTERNAL PAGE COUNTER.
517#         
518#   PYKOTA INCLUDES SUCH SCRIPTS FOR SNMP AND APPLETALK PRINTERS, MORE TO COME
519#
520#   SOME OF THE ABOVE EXAMPLES DON'T USE SUCH A SCRIPT, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
521#
522#
523#   WITH THE SPECIAL MAGIC hardware(snmp) AND hardware(pjl) VALUES, PYKOTA
524#   TAKES CARE OF ALL THIS FOR YOU, SO PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS PREFERABLE
525#   TO USE THESE TWO METHODS : THEY WORK FINE, REQUIRE LITTLE TO NO CPU,
526#   AND DO ALL THE HARD WORK AUTOMATICALLY. IF YOU REALLY NEED TO YOU CAN USE
527#   YOUR OWN EXTERNAL COMMANDS AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, JUST BE CAREFUL WITH THIS.
528#         
529#
530#    - software : delegates the job's size computation to any
531#                 external command of your choice.
532#
533#                 best choice for this is probably to set it
534#                 this way :
535#
536#                   accounter: software()
537#
538#                 which uses pkpgcounter's code internally to compute
539#                 the size of the job.
540#                 NB : YOU MUST NOW INSTALL pkpgcounter FOR PyKota TO WORK.
541#
542#                 You could obtain exactly the same result with :
543#
544#                   accounter: software(/usr/bin/pkpgcounter)
545#
546#                 But in this case the job would be passed through
547#                 pkpgcounter's parser a second time.
548#
549#                 pkpgcounter is a command line tool which was
550#                 part of PyKota and which can handle several types
551#                 of documents. It is now distributed separately.
552#
553#                 while pkpgcounter is the recommended value if you want
554#                 to use an external command here, you can use whatever
555#                 command you want provided your command accepts the job's
556#                 data on its standard input and prints the job's size in
557#                 pages as a single integer on its standard output.
558#
559# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
560# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.

576#  preaccounter: software(/path/to/your/script)
577#
578# NB : the preaccounter directive doesn't support hardware() for obvious reasons.
579# If unset, "software()" is assumed. If you use your own script, ensure that it
580# only prints the job's number of pages (or an estimation of it) on its standard output.
581#
582# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis

587
588# What should we do if the accounter's subprocess doesn't return
589# a valid result (for example doesn't return an integer on its stdout)
590#
591# Valid values are : 'continue' and 'stop'. 'stop' is the default
592# if unset.
593#
594# 'continue' means try to process as usual, this may introduce
595# accounting errors and free jobs. This was the default behavior
596# until v1.20alpha5.
597#
598# 'stop' means fail and stop the print queue. If an accounter
599# error occurs, most of the time this is a misconfiguration, so
600# stopping the print queue is usually the better thing to do
601# until the admin has fixed the configuration.

603# This value can be set either globally or on a per printer basis
604# If both are defined, the printer option has priority.
605#

736#
737# external policy can be used to launch any external command of your choice,

744# use the following policy to automate user account creation on first print :
745#
746#   policy: external(/usr/bin/autopykota --initbalance 25.0 >/dev/null)
747#
748#   This will automatically add the user if he doesn't already exist, and
749#   set his initial balance value to 25.0 (for example). If the user already
750#   exists then his balance value will not be modified.
751#   Please don't use autopykota if you want to limit your users by page
752#   quota, and in any case, carefully read autopykota's help or manpage
753#   and understand its goal before using it in your own configuration.
754#
755# Of course you can launch any command of your choice with this, e.g. :
756#
757#   policy: external(/usr/local/bin/myadminscript.sh %(username)s >/dev/null)
758
759# You can use :
760#
761#       '%(username)s'          will contain the user's name
762#       '%(printername)s'       will contain the printer's name

765#
766#   NB : Don't forget to redirect your command's standard output somewhere
767#        (e.g. >/dev/null) so that there's no perturbation to the underlying
768#        layer (filter or backend)
769#
770# If the printer, user, or user quota entry still doesn't exist after
771# external policy command was launched (the external command didn't add it),

988# Should we deny duplicate jobs ?
989#
990# A duplicate is a job sent twice (or more) in a row to the same printer
991# by the same user.
992#
993# This can be defined either globally or on a per printer basis
994# The default value is 'no', meaning that duplicate jobs are
995# allowed.
996#
997# NB : if an user prints a job, a second user prints another
998#      job, and the first user prints the first job again,
999#      this is NOT considered as a duplicate since the two
1000#      identical jobs printed by the first user are not
1001#      one just after the other.
1002#
1003# Possible values are 'yes', 'no', or any other string.
1004# If the string is not recognized as a truth value,
1005# it is considered to be a command to launch.
1006# PyKota launches the command and parses its standard
1007# output. The special keywords 'ALLOW' and 'DENY' are
1008# recognized, allowing an external tool to decide if
1009# the job is to be allowed or denied.
