Bug#564155: cups: Denies HTTP access from LAN
Package: cups
Version: 1.4.2-6
Severity: normal
No matter how I configure cups, it won't accept HTTP connections from
other PCs on my LAN (the browser gives a "can't connect ..." error). I
don't have firewalls between the local PCs.
In http://localhost:631/admin I've ticked "Share printers connected to
this system", "Allow printing from the Internet" and "Allow remote
administration". I've also tried editing cupsd.conf to add Listen
directives etc, which seem to get removed if I change settings with the
browser. It currently contains:
LogLevel warn
