I had to do that last year, cups somehow got messed up & I could not do admin from the web page. When you take out cups, it also had to take out a BUNCH of other installed apps, so I copied those app-names to a text file, so I could remember to reinstall them later, knowing aptitude install cups would do it:) and it IS important to note you need to PURGE cups, not just remove it.- aptitude purge cups -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
