Don't know if I'm telling you the obvious here or not but CUPS uses port
631 for it's web interface.
ie type "localhost:613" into the address bar on your browser.

(the computer's ip address will of course work instead of localhost)

As an aside; on my fedora box it's slightly different, they have their
own settings configuration method, so when I go to the CUPS web-
interface I can get only so far and then it shows:

	Samsung ML-1210 Foomatic/gdi (recommended)  
	Use system-config-printer to edit this!
	Location: Samsung ML-1210
	Printer State: idle, accepting jobs. 
	Device URI: parallel:/dev/lp0

on the web page.

In other words it's working fine but wants me to do any configuration
with system-config-printer.

Luckly the system-config-* utilities are all perfectly capable, I never
have to use the CUPS internal system.



I'm on for the curry by the way. Someone will have to give more more
info about exactly where the place is, where I can park etc.

Cheers

Rick
