I get the same. In addition, with cups stopped and no CUPS_SERVER
environment variable and with or without a client.conf

   root@cups1:~# lpstat -H
   localhost:631
   lpstat: Transport endpoint is not connected
   root@cups1:~# lpstat -h 192.168.7.20 -H
   localhost:631
   lpstat: Transport endpoint is not connected
   root@cups1:~# lpstat -h 192.168.7.20:631 -H
   192.168.7.20:631

'Transport endpoint is not connected' comes from getpeername, I believe.

Without a client.conf, cups stopped and CUPS_SERVER set:

   root@cups1:~# lpstat -H
   192.168.7.20:631
   root@cups1:~# lpstat -h 192.168.7.20 -H
   192.168.7.20:631
   root@cups1:~# lpstat -h 192.168.7.20:631 -H
   192.168.7.20:631

I suppose this only serves to back up what Vincent said in his first
post but I hope it might be of use.

Regards,

Brian.
