[cups.development] cups configuration error

[Nitin Kanaskar]

I am really sorry for the wrong post.
Cups which came along with FC4 was
running fine on my machine.
I am trying to use cups1.2.3 as I want
to change its source, and use the newly
compiled cups for some academic
purpose.
I'll post the topic on cups-help.
Sorry again for the irrelevant post.

Thanks
Nitin
