Description of problem: 
Cups won't print printer test page.  When the test page button is pressed in a 
chosen printer dialog, the url passed to the browser contains the local host 
name, instead of "localhost" or 127.0.0.1.  This appears to prevent the cups 
server from getting the request.  When I manually alter the URL to specify 
"localhost" instead of the local host name, the URL is passed just fine to 
cups and the test page prints fine. 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 
cups 1.1.17 
 
How reproducible: 
always. 
 
Steps to Reproduce: 
1.  open cups 
2.  select a printer 
3.  click on print test page. 
     
Actual results: 
An error occured while loading 
http://bubo6:631/printers/bjc85?op=print-test-page: 
Could not connect to host bubo6 (port 631) 
 
 
Expected results: 
Should provide the correct URL to pass to the cups server so that the test 
page prints ok. 
 
Additional info: 
Worked fine in 8.0.
