Do you have portsentry enabled? I noticed the other day that portsentry kept blocking packets from this one particular box, and then I realized that the port number was cups, and that the box was running cups and portsentry thought it was some kind of attack. If this is indeed the cause of the problem, I would have to point the finger at Mandrake. Portsentry and cups with browsing enabled don't like each other, and that's not acceptable. Configure portsentry to ignore cups, or turn cups browsing off. (Just so you all know, I am speaking out of my ass. I did absolutely no research into this, I only saw a problem and fixed it.. I turned off portsentry. Didn't really want it on that box anyway.)

I have a feeling that the reason it is breaking your 7.2 cups server maybe either a bug in either the 8.0 version or 7.2 version. --- Claudio <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Sorry, maybe I am a stupid sysadmin that cannot see > the deep reason that will > crash my departmental cups server for 2 times > when user will install 8.0! > > Claudio > > On Wednesday 11 April 2001 18:34, you wrote: > > I disagree, I think it should be a choice on > startup. > > Printing is one of the most confusing parts of > linux > > and cups makes it so much simpler.

Sorry, maybe I am a stupid sysadmin that cannot see the deep reason that will crash my departmental cups server for 2 times when user will install 8.0!

Re: [Cooker] please, please PLEASE... DISABLE CUPS BROWSING!!!
I disagree, I think it should be a choice on startup. Printing is one of the most confusing parts of linux and cups makes it so much simpler. Having cups but not broadcasting to someone who has never used it doesnt' help much. --- "R.I.P.

Claudio, please stop now, if it is thought that turning off browsing is appropriate, then it should have been done long time ago. Now please do it yourself.
