This was a new one for me, so I tried it with port 80 to see what the output should look like and got what appears to be sensible so it was working okay, there's nothing to report for port 631.

I am not sure if this is a coincidence but I remember seeing previous posts about woes with msec. I have tried to google the error message but have not found anything that worked. I have tried assigning a higher port in/etc/cups/cups.conf but that did not work. I tried: Port 1631 Listen localhost:1631 I am running at standard level security. As I said, I recall seeing similar posts in the past but can't quite find the solution. Any ideas? This may sound unrelated, but bear with me... Are there any kernel panic messages in /var/log/messages? None. And the only messages I see directly related to cups tell me child exited with status 99!. I have also looked at the various files in /var/log/security but can see nothing obvious and /var/log/secure is empty. Do you have an ide-zip drive? No, just a laptop, with a usb mouse. I have not made any changes to my hardware either. Strange, cups was working fine under 9.0 for a few days, this is not something that happened immediately after the upgrade. I have retried starting apache but that didn't help. I get this message in /var/log/messages though. Any chance it is related? [alert] httpd: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName If not, I'll worry about this one another day. I am not so sure that msec is the culprit anymore. Does anyone have any other suggesetions about where to look to track this down? Thanks. Dave Welcome to the hell of 9.0 on a laptop... just for starters, I've removed shorewall and msec from mine. Reliability is so bad (I don't have the HD space to install more than one distro, and won't install 9.0 on any other system I own or support) that I'm lucky to go a week without rebooting... see my weird time/mouse bug post last night for the latest (apmd changes the time the time change kills mouse's drag functions -- resetting the time fixes the mouse -- go figre!!) :^P That said, have you used suspend/resume? That's the worst offender for me... so bad that I just shutdown/reboot instead... with suspend/resume, I lose sound, printer, and looking at a hard lockup within an hour or so... hmm maybe due to the time change or anything UNrelated... Also, are you sure the printer is not working at all... I had one problem that cleared up as mysteriously as it appeared... printing would take several minutes to start -- cups was trying to access my LinkSys gateway, probably thinking it should act as a print server or somesuch... Then, there were the cases where the only way to get the printer working again was to remove and re-create it... 9.0 on a laptop == lots of luck and patience needed IMO.

It shows a DNS problem that might be related to your printing problem. It is not resolving the server name and it defaulting it to IP 127.0.0.1. Is the printer a local or network printer? Is it attached to the server whose name can not be resolved? -- __ / \\ @ __ __@ Adolfo Bello [EMAIL PROTECTED] / // // /\ / \\ // \ // Bello Ingenieria S.A, ICQ: 65910258 / \\ // / \\ / // // / //cel: +58 416 609-6213 /___// // / _/ \__\\ //__/ // fax: +58 212 952-6797 www.bisapi.com //pager: www.tun-tun.com (# 609-6213) Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

It looks okay to me (i.e. no garbage characters, but it could be misconfigured without me having a clue) NETWORKING=yes FORWARD_IPV4=false DHCP_HOSTNAME=ganymede HOSTNAME=ganymede DOMAINNAME=ammp.net GATEWAY=192.168.57.1 I'm pretty sure that this has not changed for a long time though so I do not think it should be related to my cups problem. Hmm - I don't have the dhcp line, so I can't comment on that, but I have the FQDN, so I would have expected HOSTNAME=ganymede.ammp.net? It's worth a try, anyway.
