Hi,
cups is giving grief again (and again and again ...) I am unable to
print to the server from a Mandrake 7.1 box and windows printers (though
that may be samba) Its getting urgent so I tried opening up with no
auth settings but that doesnt work. I also cannot connect to
localhost/631/admin - asks for the root password, but fails. Local
printing works ok (at the moment) - I have ahd to reinstall the config
files at times to get even that working at times. Have been using kups
but seems to have no effect on access.
I have the following in the cups-lpd file in xinet.d:
service printer
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = lp
server = /usr/lib/cups/daemon/cups-lpd
disable = no
}
My cupsd.conf active part is:
<Location />
AuthType None
AuthClass User
Order Deny,Allow
Allow From All
</Location>
<Location /admin>
AuthType Basic
AuthClass System
Order Deny,Allow
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Deny From All
</Location>
<Location /printers/lp>
AuthType None
AuthClass User
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From All
</Location>
