the server's "firewall" (actually is a ipmasq and nothing more) config is fine[1]. this is a snippet od the logs with level “debug2”:

d [09/Sep/2008:05:55:41 -0300] select_timeout: 29 seconds to send browse update

and then the pattern repeats pretty much the same. what I see is a browse update firing but no actual browse update (there should be a “cupsdSendBrowseList” message after the “1 seconds to send browse update” messages).
