Right. AFAIK, you need that.

The new configuration file had the following entry for each printer

<Location /printers/gc-hp201>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
AuthType None
Allow from Al
</Location>l

Probably should be one. I dunno if a port statement should be there. Also, was
there a typo, or is that actually Allow from Al (and, if so, who's Al? <g>,
rather than All.
Maybe I am late but hey, better late than never? Hope it will serve you good.

The second l is (wrongfully :) ) after </Location>.
I would try
#cd /var
#du --max-depth 1 -H

and check where is the problem

I have a cron job that deletes the spool cups jobs every night.

I made no changes in the system except to add a few users since the
updates and the time the problem began to occur.

We are also running samba and named on the system.
When up2date did the updating, did it update some configuration files?

I  think you hit on the problem.  I changed back to the
cupsd.conf.save.  access_log is
still getting the

localhost - - [05/Sep/2008:14:20:18 -0400] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 192
localhost - - [05/Sep/2008:14:20:18 -0400] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 192
messages.  However, /var switched from 71% full to 51% full.

I will now look and see what changed in cupsd.conf.  I will get back
to you.

Thanks.

ten other RedHat system at various versions;  I don't see the

the other systems.

The errors in the /var/log/cups/access_log  have always been

localhost - - [05/Sep/2008:14:20:18 -0400] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 192
localhost - - [05/Sep/2008:14:20:18 -0400] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 192

However, after the last upgrade this access_log is large very quickly
and fills up the
/var partition.  I have turned off the LogLevel on
cups to none, so access_log has stopped growing.

There is also something else going on as well.

/var is still filling up.  I know that the log and named
directories in
/var contain the files that are growing.

Could it be that the spool files are not being deleted?
