My config is already almost exactly like that, except that my config does not specify: Listen 127.0.0.1:631
127.0.0.1 is localhost (loopback) and is needed for your computer to be able to connect to its own cupsd and thus be able to print.
and this was enabled to allow other local CUPS servers (on a laptop computer) to print to my printer: BrowseAddress @LOCAL
I assume you have replaced @LOCAL with @192.168.0.1/24 or whatever the local address is?
I tried adding "Listen 127.0.0.1:631" but cups actually refused to start because it was " Unable to bind socket for address 00000000:631 - Address already in use." my CUPS automatically listens on: 0.0.0.0:631
OK, but 0.0.0.0 is *every* address in the universe, not the localhost address. Add localhost:631 it should do the same job like 127.0.0.1. Finally, check that the Deny/Allow is set to Deny all and Allow 127.0.0.1. Otherwise I've run out of ideas . . . -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
