Cann't connect to cups page

[sean darcy]

I've just set up and up2dated a new install on what's meant to be a print 
server.

I'm using a cupsd.conf from a working server. It includes:

<Location /admin>

AuthType Basic
AuthClass System

Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
Allow From 10.10.8.*
#Encryption Required
</Location>

I've flushed iptables. hosts.deny is blank.

But when I try to connect to :631, I get a connection refused.

Nothing in /var/log/cups/access_log   or /var/log/messages.

I can ping and telnet into the server.

What am I doing wrong?

Since you are using the web interface and not the graphical tool, make
sure that you remove redhat-config-printer so that it doesn't make any
changes you don't expect.

# ifconfig
# service cups status
# lsof  -Pi | grep cups
# cat /var/log/cups/* | less

# lynx http://localhost:631/

# man cupsd.conf
# man lpadmin

what happens if you substitute
"Deny From All"  with  "Allow From All"
only for testing.

an other working example, not mine
