I looked at some of the Torrin> doc on http://www.cups.org and didn't see anything. Any ideas? You can set CUPS to listen only on the loopback interface. Edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, and replace the line "Port 631" with "Listen 127.0.0.1:631". Also, if you're paranoid, set up a firewall too. Even if you don't have any extra ports open right now, a firewall can save you if you accidentally misconfigure something (or if a trojan gets installed). - -- Hubert Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://www.geocities.com/hubertchan/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/71FDA37F Fingerprint: 6CC5 822D 2E55 494C 81DD 6F2C 6518 54DF 71FD A37F Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
