I do have cupsd running as shown previously.
I haven't read the whole thread,
but I haven't seen any evidence that cupsd is running on your machine.
What is the output of "ps aux | grep cups" ?
Also what is the result of "telnet localhost 631"?
And "telnet 127.0.0.1 631"?
My present problem is getting it to accetp the root password
I'm not sure what you mean.
If cupsd is running then you should be able to browse to localhost:631
without giving the superuser password.
I strongly suspect your problem is much simpler than you think.
Timothy...you're not helping
his packages are screwed up from a completely out of control yum.repos.d
folder
He needs to fix that, and then update his packages to obtain sanity.
What you say may well be true.
But I doubt if it has anything to do with his cups problem.
If cupsd is running then the problem with cups
is likely to be something very simple -
eg perhaps the line "Listen localhost:631" in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
has somehow got deleted.
As far as the problem with yum.repos.d is concerned,
I would have recommended running "grep enabled=1 /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo"
and seen what repos were enabled (probably very few),
and disabling all except fedora and fedora-updates.
As far as cups is concerned, I would run "service cups restart"
and then look in /var/log/cups/error_log
to see what was reported there.
Cups restarts ok.
This the last lines after running 'service cups restart'

let's leave this until after we get repos and packages together

I think your right. This guy could have loaded F8 from scratch and
kept his old F2 just for fun. There are over 60 Re: Cups problem on the
list now.
