 |
|
Hi all -
Okay, I'm at my wits end - can't figure this out. I can't seem to get CUPS to allow me to run admin remotely. I can only connect via localhost:631. I think I've changed my conf file to allow remote (local LAN) connections, but I 've got a horrible feeling I've missed something. Here's my (stripped out) cupsd.conf file.
| Code: |
ServerName print
AccessLog /var/log/cups/access_log
DataDir /usr/share/cups
DefaultLanguage en
DocumentRoot /usr/share/cups/docs
ErrorLog /var/log/cups/error_log
FontPath /usr/share/cups/fonts
LogLevel debug
MaxLogSize 100000
PageLog syslog
PreserveJobHistory Yes
PreserveJobFiles No
MaxCopies 100
MaxJobs 500
Printcap /etc/printcap

RequestRoot /var/spool/cups
RemoteRoot root
ServerBin /usr/lib/cups
ServerRoot /etc/cups

My local LAN is on 192.168.254, and the print servers name is 'print'. I have a local DNS server in my LAN that resolves names, so I've turned name resolution on, as performance shouldn't be an issue.
Help much appreciated.
Cheers

hi
try to add a second listen line.
if you only have
| Code: | | Listen 127.0.0.1:631 |
cupsd will not be reachable from the outside
here is a snip of my /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
| Code: | ...
Listen 192.168.1.6:631
Listen 127.0.0.1:631
... |
(192.168.1.6 ist the IP of the server having cups. I connect to this IP with my workstation to use the cupsd- webinterface)
greetz,
endu |

I'm pretty sure for the listen line you can just put "Port 631" (minus quotes) and leave it at that.. then it will use your hostname/ipaddress
Also on all of your Auth lines, you have it saying Order Deny,Allow.. and then Deny All. That might be telling it to deny everything before it checks if something is allowed. Try changing them to Allow,Deny. |
