cups not working after lightning strike

Sun Jun 27 14:08:52 PDT 2004

I'm running cups-1.1.17-13.3.0.3 on a RedHat Linux 9.0 machine.  Two 
weeks ago my house was apparently hit by lightning and my 
computer/server was affected.  I got it going again but have been unable 
to print since then.  lpstat -t gives this:

scheduler is running
system default destination: Xerox
device for Xerox: parallel:/dev/lp0
Xerox accepting requests since Jan 01 00:00
printer Xerox is idle.  enabled since Jan 01 00:00

I can go to the Web-based interface and try to do administrative tasks 
and can apparently stop and start the printer but when I try printing a 
test page I get a message that the connection was refused.  I know that 
the printer is OK because I have been able to print successfully from my 
laptop computer.

Below I have copied some recent output from the error log file.  I have 
also discovered, in trying to use Samba, that my /etc/inetd.conf file is 
missing.  I don't know whether or not that file has anything to do with 
cups.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  You may e-mail me directly if 
you wish

Thanks,
Kevin Phillips
