If you go to http://localhost:631/admin, do you get the login page, and can you sign in successfully?  Are you signing in as root or a member of the lpadmin group?  And do you have your loopback interface set up (I believe this is needed for localhost addresses, right??)?  Those are my shots in the dark.

http://localhost:631/admin doesn't work. Neither
http://localhost:631/printers or similar. http://localhost:631 works,
but the links therein are not working.

The lo interface is up.
