[cups.general] Cups start up woes.

[Paul Sattler]

	Cups came installed when Redhat Linux was installed on our server.  Another SA did the installation so I was not present if there were any configuration/installation issues during the installation of the OS, that pertained to CUPS.
	I'm trying to get CUPS configured to replace LPD, during a platform change to linux from an old Digital Tru64 installation.  All of the installation files appear to be in place and I'm able to stop and start the CUPSD daemon.
	I have repeatedly gone through the configuration files (cupsd.conf, client.conf) in an effort to get printers defined.  Whenever I run a lpadmin command to define a printer I get the following error message.  lpadmin: add-printer (set device) failed: server-error-service-unavailable.
	In my CUPS knowledge void, I'm unclear if I don't have CUPS installed/configured correctly or I'm missing something else.  I also get no output from a lpinfo command.
	Can you offer any help in this scenario?

Thanks
