Hi, thanks for the suggestions. I fear that I have a stranger (hardware)
issue that made some of my attempts at changing software moot. In
particular /dev/lp0 didn't appear until about 30 minutes after a reboot.
I ended up downgrading cupsys-driver-gutenprint from
4.3.99+cvs20060521-4 to 4.3.99+cvs20060521-2 as this appeared to be the
only CUPS related software recently updated in unstable.
It is probably best to close my reported bug.
Regards,
Arthur Marsh.

Could you try HTTPS:
https://localhost:631/
I was able to get things working better by using:
http://ip6-localhost:631/
And again here:
https://ip6-localhost:631/
Note this part of cupsd.conf:
# Restrict access to the admin pages...
<Location /admin>
Encryption Required
Order allow,deny
Allow localhost
</Location>
The "Encryption Required" means you must you HTTPS in order to access
it. Plain HTTP won't work.
and I had not done anything to use IP6 specifically in CUPS.
It's completely automatic; CUPS 1.2 now had IPv6 support, so it will
be completely transparent.
If you post your cupsd.conf, it might show why "localhost" and
"ip6-localhost" are being treated differently.

Roger
