           Summary: cups: tcp_wrappers refused connection from unknown
           Product: openSUSE 10.2
           Version: Final
          Platform: i586
        OS/Version: SuSE Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Printing
        AssignedTo: jsmeix@xxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: walter.haidinger@xxxxxx

After upgrading from 10.1 to 10.2, cups ceased to work as expected.
The logs are flooded with messages like:
tcp_wrappers refused connection from unknown. See 
/etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny.

Likewise, syslog shows hundreds of lines:
warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 92: Unable to hand
le client address: unknown
warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 95: Unable to hand
le client address: unknown

The relevant lines in /etc/hosts.allow are:
92   ALL : 192.168.64.
95   ALL : 192.168.56.0/25

Please note that cups is the only application having trouble
with my tcpd config. Even tcpdchk and tcpdmatch are fine.

Btw, I've set cupsd to listen on any interface 'Listen 631', otherwise
tcp wrapping would not make sense anyways.

The only "workaround" so far is to add to following to /etc/hosts.allow:
cupsd : ALL
Then just a few error messages (...refused...) are logged at cupsd startup.

So far I've found just this reference regarding this bug:
