I did not know that Erik I apologize and understand about hijacking treads. Thank you for nicely telling me about my inconsideration. I apologize.

Thank you,

David would you be willing to talk with new users of GNU/Linux and BSD about CUPS and how to more properly ensure permissions when installing per say a fax unit or any type of permissions?

Paul, you may not know this, but it's considered bad mailing list etiquette (on this list and elsewhere) to hijack threads, which is what you did here. You wanted to start a discussion about CUPS, which is *fine*, but instead of composing a new email to start up the discussion, you replied to an existing thread, and in doing so, "hijacked" the thread topic.

So, in the future, if you want to start a new discussion, just compose a new email instead of replying to an existing thread.
