Hello,
my problem sounds trivial, but isn't. I can not login to my cups server on localhost via http://localhost:631, which worked for me several months ago. Well I installed a new host using FreeBSD 9.0-CUR and need to add printers. Regarding to this problem I found a lot of stuff in the net and mailing lists, but none of the hints and tipps worked for me. First I will describe what I've already did.

1) ensured local BSD lpd is not running
2) on a prior installed system where cups is up and running printing is possible but no administration (see subject), so the problem seems to be common. 3) followed some hints adding a user "root" with proper password via "lppasswd"
4) deleted password.md5 and performed step 3) again
5) deleted all ports cups-* and /usr/local/cups folder and reinstalled cups, ensured having nothing left in /usr/local/etc

The problem occured out of the blue to me, I possibly missed some changes within the last row of updates.

Can anyone help?

Please eMail me since I'm not subscriber of the "question" list.

Thanks in advance,

Oliver
