Hi,
I've uploaded the strace output for my system when trying to run s-c- printer and restart the cups server.
http://www.all-the-johnsons.co.uk/linux/downloads/printer.tar.bz2 (it's 206k long)
If anyone can see the reason for both cups not starting or s-c-p not working, I'll be interested to hear.
Both files marked printer are run from me as su and trying to start s-c- printer.
printer.txt - with nscd and cups started on boot print2.txt - with nscd and cups stopped on boot
cups.txt - attempting to start the cups server
Help!
TTFN
Paul
