I've tried everything I can find using Google to get CUPS working with KDE, but even when I manually configure the server to "Listen localhost:631", the KDE control center shows the server as "localhost:w" and can't connect. Any help would be appreciated. Starting from a new install of FreeBSD 6.2 Release, what packages/ports do I need to (install/not install) and what procedures do I need to perform in order to get CUPS working and configurable via KDE control center? Please specify details. Thanks One last question. Do I need to unset these in sysctl.conf for CUPS administration to work? net.inet.udp.blackhole=1 net.inet.tcp.blackhole=2 With them set, trying to connect to the administration page of CUPS via the web interface timed out and then failed, but when I removed the entries, the connection failed immediately. If I must unset them, is there another way to stealth ports 0 and 1 via firewall settings instead? Joe Vender
