Hello I have a HP Deskjet printer connected to my Slackware 9 system. At bootup the cupsd server is started up. In the cupsd.conf I have the following items defined: ServerName myhost.xyz.com ServerAdmin admin@myhost.xyz.com Apart from this I haven't changed anything else. I have restarted the cupsd server. Using the Browser on port 631, I have add a printer and then a class. When I try to print a test page I get this following error message: --------------- Forbidden You don't have permission to access the resource on this server. --------------- The cupsd server does prompt me for userid/password for which I use the root and root password. Why am I getting this error? Do I need to creat class first then printer or vice versa? Does that sequence really matter? -- Subba Rao subba9@cablespeed.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Old American Wild West saying: God created men but Colt made them equal.
