Package: cups Version: 1.4.4-7 Severity: normal
I have used qemu/kvm for some years to run a winxp guest. The guest used http://10.0.2.2:631/printers/PRINTERNAME to access my cups printer. However, after upgrading to squeeze, this doesnt work anymore. The printer is not accesible (from the guest. On the host everything is ok) and I find the following message in /var/log/cups/error_log: E [03/Mar/2011:18:13:19 +0100] Request from "localhost" using invalid Host: field "10.0.2.2:631" Looking in the cups code (/scheduler/client.c) I found that cups will only allow requests, if the ip is 127.0.0.1 or for localhost. Adding the line ServerAlias * and/or HostNameLookups on did not help. The problem has been described by different people: http://blog.jamponi.net/ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=498711 http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=33473 it may also be connected to debian bug #530027 However, I did not find a suitable solution yet. (other than using samba or a bridge for the network connection) As this has worked before I think it is a bug.
