In my case, I had to build a kernel, 2.6.28-rc8, and disable all hints of ipv6
in the make xconfig screens. That worked.
Amanda also worked last night, but didn't get to print the backup report for
some reason. I just tested that particular printer profile & a cups test
page looks fine to me. I also set cups to share, I assume via samba, the
configured printers with the rest of the local nets machines. I thought I
had that enabled before, but that was before I moved the rpmnew conf file
into use.
However, I still cannot use the Brother Laser printer. The only error message
in the cups error_log is in the middle of a bunch of success lines.
Maybe this makes sense? From the error_log, modify printer, print test page
(and that returns success instantly on the jobs screen) Printer is an
HL2140, rpms for it from Brother are installed.

Wth is this DNS-SD? I've never before seen that, nor heard of the term.
I've added the cups list, maybe Mike has some insight here. This printer has
not worked since I installed Fedora Unity 8, August 2008 version, after a
main drive failure. Everything but dbus is uptodate. I saw the error
messages and have been holding that one back, I have enough stuff that
doesn't work already.
Thanks Craig, and anybody else with a clue.
