Hello !


For my enterprise, I need to change the currently printing server (OS: HP-UX 11.11) to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. To do that, I need to use CUPS with the LPD protocol.
Actually, I can't print anything from a Windows Server to the Printing Server with CUPS.

In /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, I add "Listen *:515"

When I go to /var/log/cups/error_log, I have always the same issue :

E [17/Oct/2012:15:03:33 +0200] Unable to bind socket for address 0.0.0.0:515 - Permission denied.
E [17/Oct/2012:15:03:33 +0200] Unable to open listen socket for address :::515 - Address family not supported by protocol.

Which informations have you need ?

Ps: Sorry for my english :)

Thank's,

Kaizen
