There is no firewall on the Fedora machine (the firewall is on the
router).

The ports are open on the Mac. If I ignore the GUI and use the cups web
configuration I am able to print from windows clients.

If I drag a file to the desktop printer icon in Fedora after cups web
configuration I am able to print via lpd.

If I touch anything in the GUI printing is only possible on the local
machine.

The "easy" solution is to wipe Fedora and go back to RH9 but it seem
pretty counter productive...

A harder solution is to do a clean install of Fedora on the machine
(last time it was an yum upgrade from RH9) and reinstall all the
specific stuff from there.

The real easy solution would be configuration tools and desktop printing
which actually work as advertised...

I really need my printer on the Mac because it has an old SCSI scanner
attached to it and I have heaps of photocopies to do today =:-(

Ta anyway
