Hello Darren About this problem, the access denied The way I use to configure a Server which have no X installed is to use an SSH tunnel. If you are using Linux SSH in your server and make a tunnel on port 631 and as if you are connect to port 631 on the local server. This somehow is the best way to prevent any security problem. Use the following command to connect to your server. ssh root@xxxxxx -L 631:localhost:631 Thank You Chan Min Wai Darren R. Weber ´£¨ì: >I need help with cups.
