HostNameLookups Double

[Nuzhna Pomoshch]

I have tried using this option (with a cupsd.conf that lists servers by name), but it it seems to break things.

First /var/log/cups/error.log fills up with:

W [30/Apr/2012:00:00:00 +0000] IP lookup failed - connection from localhost closed!

Even worse, some of the functions don't work. "Manage Jobs" just pulls up a blank page. "Manage Printers" says it is unable to get a list of printers. "Add Printer" says it is unable to add a printer.

I have tried various combinations of "localhost" and "localhost.example.com" with no difference in the outcome. Is there any way around this? One would think that cups would be able to figure out the address of localhost!
