Ive gone through 2 or 3 different tutorials trying to get a printer shared thats attached to my etch server and im stuck. Ive set up nfs, ssh, samba...all without much of a problem, but im getting nowhere with this
i cant even access remotehost:631 (the CUPS setup web page) from a client machine.
Im not sure exactly what information is relevant, Ill post my cupsd.conf since I figure thats the best place to start:
if the formatting is off...well, i get an error whenever i try to preview. meh.
i thought perhaps hosts.allow would need an entry for cupsd but that didnt seem to make a difference (i restarted networking after i added it)
thanks for looking
