Hello,

I'm going back with this problem.

the cups server advertize from cups-server:631 to cups-server:0 when I
do a kill -1 <cups server pid>

Maybe this happens due to the strange configuration I have. The cups
server has 2 ip addresses: 10.194.65.10(private) and
129.194.65.10(public). The 129.194.6[4-7].x network can talk to the
10.194.6[4-7].x because it is routed. So the cups server :
Listen 10.194.65.10:631
and not the 129.194.65.10:631

and the cups server has a BrowseAddress on 129.194.67.255 (that is the
broadcast adress for our 129.194.64.0/22 network) and no BrowseAddress
on 10.194.67.255.

I've check that this happens with wireshark for this error_log. To
create this error log, I've done:

#remove old log
date
    Tue Mar 17 10:02:16 CET 2009
/etc/init.d/cups start
    Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd.
#verify that wireshark capture ipp trafic with cups-server:631
date
    Tue Mar 17 10:02:31 CET 2009
kill -1 <cups server pid>
#verify that wireshark capture ipp trafic with cups-server:0
/etc/init.d/cups stop
    Stopping Common Unix Printing System: cupsd.

the full data provided are on:
http://obswww.unige.ch/~briner/cups

there is also the cups server configuration into it:
    http://obswww.unige.ch/~briner/cups/cupsd.conf
I've copied the error_log into it :
    http://obswww.unige.ch/~briner/cups/error_log
and the wireshark data into it :
    http://obswww.unige.ch/~briner/cups/cups.wireshark

the wireshark capture filter (tcpdump alike) is:
    port 631 and src host 129.194.65.10
          the ip of the cups server /
