My cupsd.conf file keeps changing, adding printers I had deleted and removing access to networks other than 127.0.0.0. I'll edit the file and restore it to the state I want it. But after the next reboot or seemingly after a few days, the file has changed again. What is changing cupsd.conf? What file or files controls what gets put in cupsd.conf?
Remove system-config-printer if you need to hand-edit CUPS files.
In addition to getting rid of system-config-printer. Updating cups package will sometimes overwrite your existing cupsd.conf (old copy saved to cupsd.conf.rpmsave). Do you have yum enabled to automatically download and install updates (what is the output of "chkconfig --list yum")?
