Sorry if this is vague, but I have never used CUPS and never really needed to print from Linux before. Basically what I want to do is allow logged in users to print to network printers. These printers are usually accessed via IP. I was considering using CUPS to do this. By the way .. I am running Fedora Core 6.
I installed CUPS and Ghostscript, but I cannot get to the admin page. When I enter
http://myserver:631/admin I get a
403 Fornidden message.
In my output I get the following
