CUPS 403 error?

[bennis]

So i have a server install of ubuntu on, guess what, a server! And i'm sshing into it. I installed CUPS and am trying to connect to waiter:631 (get it? a waiter is a server) and when i *do* get a connection, i get a 403 error. I have Apache2 running fine and have torrentflux running fine. Any ideas?

Try https, you'll get a certificate error, but just ignore it. eg:


https://waiter:631

That didn't work. I got the certificate error, but when i added an exception i still got a 403 error.

Just solved this on my 8.04-2 server.

Added the "Allow all" entries into my cups.conf

<Location />
Allow all
Order allow,deny
Allow all
</Location>

<Location /admin>
AuthType Default
Require user @SYSTEM
# Allow remote administration...
Allow all
Order allow,deny
</Location>
