making BrowsePoll work

I've got a CentOS5 machine acting as a cups_server.  What'd I'd like to be able to do is configure all of our client machines in their cupsd.conf's:
BrowsePoll cups_server

I can't find any incarnation of 'BrowseAllow' that makes this work.  Clients (on different subnets) fail with error logged:
[cups-polld cups_server:631] CUPS-Get-Printers failed: Forbidden

I even tried some black magic on cups_server's cupsd.conf:
<Policy default>
...
 <Limit CUPS-Get-Printers>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow all
  </Limit>
</Policy>

but that didn't help either.

Hints/advice?
