No remote login possible

Additional info:

cups worked since RHL 7.0 without any issues, I've never experienced such a
problem with cups.
The actual rpm-version of cups is cups-1.1.14-12

Works here... 
Can you reproduce it on another machine if you connect it to the same printer?

Comment 2 Joachim Kunze 2002-04-13 12:49:37 UTC
On another machine with the same printer cups starts without crashing. But the
printing process hangs after some % with the message USB port busy, whatever
that means

Comment 3 Warren Togami 2002-04-14 11:16:54 UTC
Was the crashing machine SMP by chance?

Comment 4 Joachim Kunze 2002-04-28 12:29:35 UTC
No - a Celeron 1 GHz machine on an ASUS CUSL2-C mainboard

Comment 5 Joachim Kunze 2002-04-29 19:42:12 UTC
Problem resolved after an update to kernel 2.4.18-0.26 and cups 1.1.14-15 - may
another package could also be involved - it was an update with the rpms from today

Thanks,

Joachim
