Hello list; I have noticed a red fail message when I boot. "Starting cups: cupsd: Child exited with status 1!" I looke dthe message up on the web and the advice given was that you ned to start cupsd as root. [root@localhost ~]# whoami root [root@localhost ~]# service cups start Starting cups: cupsd: Child exited with status 1! [FAILED] [root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa cups* cups-1.2.3-3 cups-libs-1.2.3-3 cups-lpd-1.2.3-3 cups-devel-1.2.3-3 [root@localhost ~]# uname -r 2.6.17-1.2630.fc6 cupsdconf gives: Unable to retrieve configuration file from the CUPS server. You probably don't have the access permissions to perform this operation. any ideas? - it was working a few days ago. Mick M.
