Greetings:



My RHEL4 installation uses CUPS, and it appears that any
other shared printers throughout the network appear in the browse list. You
also see them with lpstat -t. Is there a simple config that turns off
browsing of other printers? And if so, how do I clear out the list of
destinations currently there?

Have you tried in your cupsd.conf
BrowseAllow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xx

Percy:

I want to talk to direct IP printers. It's just shares from desktop
PCs and Mac's I don't want to add as part of the Linux lp destinations.

The cupsd.conf file looks like it's created from some printconf
utility. Can I edit it and not lose changes?

Yep, there is. You can try to go to localhost:<forgetwhatport>, and see if you
can turn it off there, or you can edit the config file in /etc/cups.

Documentation? You might want to read ESR's rant about trying to get CUPS to
work right....

We have 4 subnets each having multi ip printers and what we do in cupsd.conf is
Browsing On
BrowseProtocols cups
BrowseOrder Allow,Deny
BrowseAllow from <ip-address-subnet>
This restricts all printers from any other subnet.
We do not use printool or any other tool that would directly overide cupsd.conf.

hope that helps
