The client.conf files on all the machines are just those distributed without change. I have attached my cupsd.conf file from the server. The key changes were these: Listen 192,168.1.100 <-- the address of my print server <Location /> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From 192.168.1.* <-- the subnet of my home network. </Location> . . <Location /printers/ophelia> <-- ophelia is the printer on my server. Order Deny,Allow Deny From All Allow From ALL AuthType None </Location> The cupsd.conf on the clients were the files as distributed I hope all this helps someone out there. Note: as I said before the clients could not have a line in the clients.conf file identifying the print server if that machine has a local printer. Havinig that line prevents the client from printing to its local printer. -- Aaron Konstam <akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
