Hi there,

I am running CUPS server in cross-platform academic environment.

People are using Debian Sarge as a desktop workstation, some have local
printers attached. How do I configure CUPS client so that it can use
both: queues on the CUPS server and local queues?

I can configure CUPS client to look for the server by using 
#ServerName in /etc/cups/client.conf. If I do this, client sees the main
server but fails to see any printers configured locally.

If I comment out #ServerName in /etc/cups/client.conf, the machine see
all local printers but fails to see any queues on the main CUPS server.

I configured a client to poll the server for the list of available
printers: BrowsePoll local.cups.server:631

Server configured to announces itself to the local subnet as follows:

BrowseAddress @LOCAL
BrowseOrder allow,deny
BrowseAllow @LOCAL

It does it properly all queues can be seen on the client only 
if ServerName on the client point's to the server. 

Thank you in advnace.

Ivan
