That sucks.... The next silly question is did you check things out in the cups interface or just the KDE/Gnome/Windows frontends?
The CUPS UI is at http://ip.of.your.server:631 As Gustin mentioned you might have better luck with this from the server itself connecting to http://localhost:631. CUPS can have tight security settings preventing you from cancelling jobs from remote (or even local) boxes, you can change them in cupsd.conf which will be in /etc somewhere. Of course you might have a GUI in PCLOS for that...I dunno. Nick On Wednesday 25 October 2006 14:33, Mitchell Brown wrote: > I did - and *gasp* I even rebooted the computer!
