CUPS in RH4 (1.1.22) crashed after deleting a printer:

I [21/Mar/2008:12:13:15 -0400] Remote destination "Canon_MP800 at FelixKreisels-MacBook-Pro.local" has timed out; deleting it...

I [21/Mar/2008:16:34:46 -0400] Saving printers.conf...

After those messages, CUPS was no longer running.  I couldn't find any other error messages.  This occurred on several dozen workstations that are running RH4.

This printer was a shared printer on an OSX powerbook that someone had temporarily connected on the network.
