Package: cups Version: 1.3.8-1lenny4 Severity: important browsing to "http://`hostname`:631/" fails - by default Debian maps the machine's hostname to 127.0.1.1, and this erroneously does not seem to be covered by cups' (poorly documented) @LOCAL network ACL, despite 127.0.1.1 being a local address.
This is particularly baffling if you (for instance): Allow @LOCAL Allow 192.168.0.1/24 (i.e. your local subnet). Browsing to http://yourhostname:631/ then gets a '403 Forbidden' whereas http://127.0.0.1:631/ or http://your.ip.address.in.the.local.subnet:631/ succeeds. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages cups depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii cups-common 1.3.8-1lenny4 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii debconf [debconf-2 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii ghostscript 8.62.dfsg.1-3.2lenny0 The GPL Ghostscript PostScript/PDF ii libavahi-compat-li 0.6.22-3 Avahi Apple Bonjour compatibility ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcups2 1.3.8-1lenny4 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libcupsimage2 1.3.8-1lenny4 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgnutls26 2.4.2-4 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.11-1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam0g 1.0.1-4+b1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpaper1 1.1.23+nmu1 library for handling paper charact ii libslp1 1.2.1-7.5 OpenSLP libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii perl-modules 5.10.0-19 Core Perl modules ii poppler-utils [xpd 0.8.7-1 PDF utilitites (based on libpopple ii procps 1:3.2.7-9 /proc file system utilities ii ssl-cert 1.0.23 simple debconf wrapper for OpenSSL Versions of packages cups recommends: pn avahi-utils <none> (no description available) ii cups-client 1.3.8-1lenny4 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii foomatic-filters 3.0.2-20080211-3.2 OpenPrinting printer support - fil ii smbclient 2:3.2.5-3 a LanManager-like simple client fo Versions of packages cups suggests: ii cups-bsd 1.3.8-1lenny4 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii cups-driver-gutenprint 5.0.2-4 printer drivers for CUPS pn cups-pdf <none> (no description available) pn foomatic-db <none> (no description available) pn foomatic-db-engine <none> (no description available) ii hplip 2.8.6.b-3 HP Linux Printing and Imaging Syst pn xpdf-korean | xpdf-japanes <none> (no description available) -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
