Read that in conjunction with the provided logrotate file: /etc/logrotate.d/cups. So yes, grow without limit, but get rotated by logrotate (and eventually deleted). > Question 2: > > What is the purpose of printcap and what is the significance of the default > being BSD? /etc/printcap is informational. > Question 3: > > # > # Ports/addresses that we listen to.

No. So by default it doesn't (except for browsing). These settings are set by redhat-config-printer. > I am changing this to KeepAlive Off -- will that cause any problems? YMMV. I'm not aware of anything that relies on keepalive. > Question 5: > #Browsing On > > > I am changing this to Browsing Off since I do not want to serve as a print > host. Is this correct? If you have redhat-config-printer installed do it through that interface, or the change will get overwritten next time the cups initscript starts. But also, no, that's not really correct: browsing refers to the ability to detect remote shared queues. Tim. */
