I stopped the firewall on both computers, opened the server sharing to 'all

After that I received a 'connection refused' message using the

http://localhost:631 in Firefox (on the server) shows a happy little

"Network host '192.168.0.2' is busy; will retry in 30 seconds..."
Device URI: http://192.168.0.2:631/printers/deskjet-5550-2
What's interesting to me is that this device URI shows http. In the print
config GUI, I've selected IPP with only 192.168.0.2 in the Server field.
IPP operates over http; you can access an IPP printer by using
http://printer:631/
I don't know what to do about this. Apparantly it's stumping several of you
smart guys. Hmm...... what about the firewall built into the Netgear router?
It was never an issue when I had SuSE 9.1 but could it play into this at all?
Can you post the output of:
# fgrep 631 /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
on the print server
