Hi list,

I need to employ a timeout on my socket connections (because I need dynamic addresses re-resolved).

>From looking at the source (http://svn.easysw.com/public/cups/trunk/backend/socket.c) I know that there is a "contimeout" option that defaults to 1 week.

However, when I try to enter a device URI like socket://printer:9100?contimeout=30 I get a "Bad device-uri" error.

Regards,
André
