Nothing interesting, but I did notice one more line of output that I didn't before: I [27/Jul/2004:12:04:46 +1000] Listening to 0:631 I [27/Jul/2004:12:04:46 +1000] Listening to c0a80102:631 I [27/Jul/2004:12:04:46 +1000] Sending browsing info to c0a801ff:631 I [27/Jul/2004:12:04:46 +1000] Loaded configuration file "/etc/cups/cupsd.conf" I [27/Jul/2004:12:04:46 +1000] Configured for up to 100 clients.

The start line says listening. Has it opened the port for listen yet, or does it defer the actual open until the E line, where it fails? Or is it indeed trying to open the port twice? -- TimC -- http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/staff/tconnors/ Weeks of coding can save you hours of planning. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
