[cups.general] Administration page loop; cannot change printer defaults

[Michael Sweet]

This is a side-effect of a security change that was made in 10.6.4.  When accessing the local web interface, use "localhost" instead of "127.0.0.1" to work around this issue.

It will not allow me to access the configuration page for printer defaults, and instead jumps to the general Administration page whenever I select from the drop-down list on the printer detail page.
