Paul,

in my experience you don't need to open any door.
Please note::
1) the other server is working with same configuration, but I didn' t
use either printer graphical conficuration tool or CUPS after FC5
upgrade!!!
2) this server was working with exactly same configuration file but FC4
3) excluding cups-config-daemon and reconfiguring all printers (delete
and re-install printers) makes everything o.k.

Some CUPS guru should explain, but at least I am back in operation!!

Tnx
