Actually it's not as easy as 'don't run the config tool'. The cups initscript runs the config tool backend, and that's what writes cupsd.conf. So if you want to completely bypass the config tool, you'll need to edit the cups initscript too. (But file an RFE in bugzilla or the config tool won't change.) Tim. */
