Hello, 

      Speaking of CUPS, I am right now reinstalling Fedora Core 3 on one of my 
computers because I don't know how to re-establish my print server settings 
in the /etc/cups/cupsd.config file.  I am trying to set up a CUPS print 
server on my local LAN where not only can the other machines on the LAN see 
the printer on the server but also print from it. I continue to get an error 
from the computer where the printer is attached which states that it cannot 
bring up the CUPS server settings.  I am using the KDE desktop environment 
and I am using the printing manager under Applications-Preferences-More 
Preferences-Printing Manager. I am sure that this error is due to something I 
did wrong in the /etc/cups/cupsd.config file.  Is there any way I can bring 
this file back to its default state? At this point, I cannot even print 
locally from the machine where the printer is attached.  As I mentioned 
above, I have been able to get the other machines on the LAN to see the 
printer on the network, but I am still unable to print remotely. All of my 
machines are behind a wireless router which are connected through ethernet 
ports except for one of the machines, which is connected wirelessly.  Any 
help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
