Same thing here. Going back to cups-1.1.23-30.2 (and libs) enables printing again. Am Donnerstag, den 18.05.2006, 09:17 -0400 schrieb Bob Goodwin:

I didn´t file one because I tried to narrow the problem down, but now I can´t reproduce this any more. Going back to the older version and reapplying the newer one doesn´t show the problem any more. Henry Am Donnerstag, den 18.05.2006, 14:59 +0000 schrieb Tim Waugh:

I tried a second system today - no problem there except that the cups deamon wasn´t started after the upgrade (it was before). I will do a rollout on these packages this weekend on our other systems - if I find one wich shows this again I will file a bug and let you know. Henry

The other thing is if it works... Now I allowed connections from everywhere, ports are closed anyway. Lauri

But why it's incorrect? It should be correct. No, It's not back. This works, thanks. Lauri

Offhand, I can not think of a network configuration what would have 192.168.1.1 as a network address as apposed to a host address. An explanation of why it works that way is a bit complicated, and an understanding of binary helps. A good rule to keep in mind is that if you binary AND a host address with the netmask, you get the network address. Mikkel PS - Interesting thought - what would a netmask of 255.255.255.1 give you? All the odd or even addresses between x.x.x.1 and x.x.x.255, depending on the network address? -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
